Found in my Uncle's cellar - used for storing odd pieces of ironmongery. I wonder how old this is? My grandad used to run a sweet shop around 1940, so perhaps its from there.
Your tin is in really good shape it looks like. They just don't make 'em like that anymore, with all the detailed design and fancy type. I'd guess 40s era for this tin. What's that inside it? Was that there when you found it? How cool to find such a treasure!
