The Harold Rowe Trophy.

 

Horace A. Rowe Trophy
for the Best Documentary

This delicate trophy was made by Mr. Rowe, a skilled silversmith, and donated in 1950. It was at first intended for an award known as "My Job".  It was first presented in 1954 by which time it had become the award for documentary.

Any help in filling the gaps of its history would be very welcome.

In the early 21st century the giving of trophies was stopped but the award itself continues.
