![]() This is the latest, vintage tin added to my website. This one has a really nice folk-style design on it, with a raised oval of flowers on the lid, and lots of folky, retro flowers, leaves and vines decorating the sides. The colours are really vibrant, and the gold is a really deep, rich gold. It's a lovely thing. ![]() Made for Carr's of Carlisle, I can date this to pre-1972 as Carr's were taken over by United Biscuits then, and there is no mention of United Biscuits on this tin. ![]() The hinged lid has a nice, tight fit, so I think this tin would make a great seed packet storage tin because it would definitely keep the moisture out.
