Help Please on a Sheffield Beer Mug

[BeadsandBaubles 10]

Hi to the Friendlies

 

Is there anyone knowledgeable on Sheffield Pewter. This question is for my Mum. My Dad passed away 6 weeks ago and this item is from his estate. She has asked me to dispose of a few goods as she is moving to a smaller place and does not have space to keep all.

 

This is a pewter beer mug. On the bottom is the inscription

English Pewter

Made in Sheffield

English

 

On the side is a badge of the Royal Airforces Association

An eagle or falcon with spread wings, standing on a small world globe with the continent of Africa foremost and the inscription 'RAFA'

 

Above the badge is the inscription

'Presented To

No. 3 (Transport) Squadron

Royal Rhodesian Air Force'

 

Below the badge is the inscription

'By

No. 1064 Nyasaland Branch

The Royal Air Forces Association'

 

I would be grateful for any information regarding this object and Thanx in advance.

 

Sandy
