A VERY RARE early-century Blue Bird Toffee Tin of the American Niagara Falls. Note the two prospectors looking out over the tiny original The Maid of the Mist Ferry. The removable top features an image of a turn-of-the-century hand-painted scene, with clear graphics on the sides, and a clean inside. There are several wear spots on this beauty, but what do you expect from a toffee tin that has survived almost a century! Made in England.
DID YOU KNOW? The original Maid of the Mist was built by the United States on a landing near Niagara Falls on the American side of the border. The boat was christened in 1846 as a border-crossing ferry, and its first trip was on September 18, 1846.
