Title: London Bus Biscuit Tin, 1976-1981 [Go to resource]
Description: There is quite a contrast between this tin and the tins Huntley & Palmers produced before World War Two which also imitated motor vehicles. The 'Motor Van' tin of 1937-1939, for example, is carefully shaped and crafted so that it could be used as a working toy car after the biscuits inside had been eaten. This 1970s tin, on the other hand, is simple rectangular box, which makes no attempt at either realism or wit.
