The Lufwaffe in North Africa (1940) used the sharkmouth on Me-110's (ZG26 and/or ZG76. The first sharkmouth that I have found was in the Spanish Civil War, on a Bf-109C, photo shown on the fillowing page;

That picture of the Lancaster looks digitally manipulated. Everyone knows that English sharks have yellow, crooked and cavity ridden teeth.

Is that an RAF Lanc? I know some Canadian squadrons did that sort of thing.
