They would both be the same bore but there may be subtle mechanical differences in the keywork.
In my opinion the Imperials of the 40's and 50's were better made than in later years, I have owned several made between 1946 and 1979. (they still had some of the original craftsmen working at Edgware in those earlier days).
42836 would be one of the earliest made in about 1946/47.
I had a pair many years ago ser 36xxx which were made in 1946 and owned originally by a Halle player. This had point screws on the mechanism.
By the early 1950s the (926) was fitted with rods throughout just like the 1010.
Later on the 926 reverted to point screws again.
Certainly up to the early 50's there was no "926" marked on the instrument and the logo you mentioned first was certainly in use to at least 1953.
The bore is 0.592 inch or about 15.05mm - much larger than the RC and is parallel from top of barrel through the upper joint and well into the lower joint until the normal French style lower end expansion.
