Thank you, Paul.

It certainly explains the "P&S Ltd". with the RD number on the underside of the base.

I will ask the moderators to remove the post from the GMB RD lookup list.

I picked up one of these today. Look like David was right about the mixer bit because look who Platers & Stamper belonged to in 1936

The question is who made the glass?

Well found! I've transposed the relevant paragraph across:

The Prestige story starts way back in 1936 when a company called EKCO Products Company, based in Chicago, USA, purchased a UK company called Platers & Stampers. EKCO wanted to expand into Europe and Platers & Stampers provided the perfect avenue for this. At this time Platers & Stampers produced chrome plated kitchen tools and gadgets, bathroom fittings and domestic bakeware.

This might fit in nicely with this thread as Skyline was the cheaper version of Prestige Kitchen ware.

The seller may even allow you to use her pictures for reference.??
