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.
