DID YOU KNOW? In the 1800s, tins were used to store many products, including commodities such as tea & spices, because of their air tight seals that preserved freshness. Before the days of media publicity, advertisers relied on these tins to promote their colorful product labels and advertising giveaways. Tins were used in all exotic shapes and sizes and are highly collectible today.
