Description: | A mysterious tin. There are two examples of it in the Museum of Reading collection. It is presumably a mock up tin, though one which has reached a further stage than many of the mock-up tins in the collection, which often consist of hand coloured paper designs pasted on an old tin. Here the design has been properly printed and the tin has even been given a number of its own. However, it does not appear to have reached the final stage of production. The number it has been given suggests that it comes from the design studio of Huntley, Boorne & Stevens. The contents are given as 'Chocolate Assorted' on the end panels. It has no name or date, but the style suggests it belongs some time in the 1950s. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Publisher: | Huntley & Palmers | Rights holder: | Reading Borough Council (Reading Museum Service) | Subjects: | lion natural science communication inscription decorative art animal | Temporal: | start=1950-01-01; end=1959-12-31; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | Not known | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
