Title: Travellers, 1873-1875 [Go to resource]
Description: Despite the name, this tin could hardly have functioned as a container for travelling salesmen, as some have suggested. It seems more likely to be a jokey and experimental design for sale to the general public, though its shape, of course, anticipates the foil-wrap packs of the later supermarket era. It is thought to be one of only two tins for produced Huntley & Palmers using the early direct tin printing process.
