    Description

    This dish was produced by Elkington & Co, Birmingham, England using their trademark "Elkington Plate" silver-plating process.
    It was supplied to Canadian Pacific Railway by A T Wiley of Montreal.
    An attractive simple dished design with rolled edge and the letters "CPR" engraved to the centre.
    Maker's marks on the bottom of the vase include the date mark "W" inside a bulbous square which dates it to 1908.
    These plates were used in Canadian Pacific Railway's dining cars which operated on passenger services across Canada from 1885 until the 1970's.
    This plate is Elkington & Co's model 14145, measuring c. 15.5cm/6 inches in diameter.
    With minor marks or wear to plate (please study the photos but ignore the unavoidable reflections) this dish is in very good antique condition.
