Title: Oblong Basket, 1906 (tin liner only) [Go to resource]
Description: During the early 1900s straw and wicker baskets were very popular with tin manufacturers. In 1907 Huntley & Palmers issued a square version, in 1905 they had issued an oval basket and this oblong tin was produced in 1906. This example nicely illustrates the care that was taken to produce high quality products even when, as here, the craftsmanship was hidden by an outer basket cover.
