This Vintage Tin by Barringer & Brown's Mustard of London features their advertising on the side of a  'DOUBLE-DECKER-BUS', and it's in ver good condition. There is some light grime and surface rust on the top of the lid, but all sides display vivid and clean images of people sitting inside the bus. An excellent addition for any transport-related collector. Good working hinged-lid, clean inside. Made in England. 

DID YOU KNOW? Since the 1860s, Barringer and Brown were packing and selling mustard in tins that were being hand made by their own workers and decorated with paper labels, or they were being decorated by the  Tinplate Decorating Co. One of the partners, Charles Manners, was more interested in the packaging than the goods inside and developed that side of the business, it became so successful that they were able to sell a surplus of tins to other manufacturers.
