If I'm not mistaken but a lot of those dishes looked like a Pound or more which was a lot of money back then.

£1 pound in 1913 equals £118.36 pounds today.

Unless that 1/ is a shilling or less which equates to 1/20th of a £.

Then too, I could be all messed up on this.

“/” denotes a shilling.

No, there were no dishes for a pound. 1/ = one shilling.
