VICTORIAN CYLINDRICAL PINT TANKARD

Item Number: 08-1003
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 #997-1007 were used in the Sherlock Holmes television series as
well as 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.
Slightly tapered with
flared lip marked PINT. Flared base and rectangular handle. Bottom with
double Ken Paul marks and old initials. Fine patina with minor
blemishes. The base with short melt from warming on a wood stove with
compromised judgment.
Layaway is available for this item.
