Item Number: 08-729
Until 2001, Ken
Paul Ltd. was Londons leading film prop supplier. Kens shop was well
known as a treasure trove of fine and eclectic antiques, including the
occupied coffin clock used in The Rocky Horror Movie, as well as a
source for the less extraordinary. For nearly five decades it supplied
props for virtually every English movie of note from Lawrence of Arabia
to Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone as well as television shows
including Masterpiece Theater and more recently, Absolutely Fabulous.
Items #717-729 were used in a number of English movies during the
50s-90s. As with any business, getting on with the product took
precedence, and film credits were maintained for only a few of the
thousands of items in his stock. None the less, a keen eye for spotting
the items in English films of the period has produced many matches and
given great pleasure and amusement to their owners.

the from with elegant monogram AM over 1/2 PINT. The lip with crowned
VR control mark. Loop handle. Fine dark patina, the bottom half inch
