Measuring Jug marked P & S Ltd, Reg. No. 824215
« on: March 02, 2010, 03:42:59 PM »
Can anyone help with identifying the maker of this measuring jug, please?

It has the Registered Design No. of 824215, but it is not listed in great-glass.co.uk (although I appreciate this is not a definitive list). I am also aware of the Intellectual Property Office but this, as usual, finds nothing remotely historical...

Does anyone know of a full and comprehensive RegDes list, not just for glass?

It's not in the Glass Assn Blue Book list either David.

Thanks so far. The only mention of Prince and Symmons, is this when googling

But this indicates they were wholesale agents/distributors, rather than manufacturers. More digging I think.

No trace of them in 1907 Annuaire as dealers. 1931 list of glass makers (PG Annual) in Glass Study has no matches on initials except unlikely Pearson, S., (West Bromwich) Ltd. (bottles), Charles Street
