History of PB Prize Levels

My Grandma won a PB Prize back in the 1980s or maybe even the 1970s, not sure.
It was quite a lot back then.
But I was wondering is there anywhere a list of historic PB prize levels, as I would be interested to know what level of prize it might have been back then.
Many thanks for reading this.

What do you actually mean by 'prize levels' - nominal published prize rate, top prize, breakdown of prizes by size, chances of winning one per bond per month, etc?
https://www.nsandi.com/historical-interest-rates has some summary data going back to 2008....

In 1956 the maximum prize was £1000. I vaguely recall a conversation with my mother which suggests it was about £25000 in the early to mid 70s but I could be completely wrong. It has been £1m since 1991, though obviously £1m was worth a lot more then than now!1
