QUEEN ELIZABETH II Vintage Mid-Century Tin Container, by Huntley & Palmers (#1). This large, clean tin looks great, and has a removable top. Its 8-sided design makes it sturdy. This tin was made by the British firm of Huntley & Palmers Biscuit Company in celebration of HRH QUEEN ELIZABETH II, as Colonel of her famous Grenadier Guards. Very Good Condition, with major scuff on lid. Made in England.

Here is a 1950's image of HRM Queen Elizabeth II, atop her mount; what a wonderful image of our amazing Queen! Riding side-saddle, the Queen returns to Buckingham Palace after attending the Trooping the Colour ceremony on Horse Guards Parade. She has appeared at her annual birthday parade every year of her reign, except for 1955 when a national rail strike cancelled the event. She began riding in a carriage in 1987.

Huntley & Palmers #1 & #2 are listed separately on GC&C to show individual unique characteristics and photos of each tin, same price. To view #2 CLICK HERE
