Title: Jacob's Fun House Biscuits, 1990 [Go to resource]
Description: We tend to think that biscuits with cartoon-style faces are a modern phenomena. However, Huntley & Palmers produced such varieties as 'Littlefolk' biscuits over a hundred years earlier. These modern versions are, by comparison, very crude. 'Littlefolk' biscuits had a tremendous variety of characters, whereas these 'Fun House' biscuits, judging by the illustrations on the lid, are much less carefully produced. It would seem that not only tin-designs, but their contents too, gradually declined over the decades!
