Description: | Every year Huntley & Palmers would produce new tin designs and the Christmas market was the main focus of these activities. Christmas tins were sold in their own right as desirable items and the rival biscuit firms would compete to produce the most fancy tins. This 1909 sheet prominently displays the company's British royal warrants. The tins available for export to France were Creel, Sylvan Vase, Field Glass Case, Harvest, Cloisonne, Buhl, Stationery Case, Embroidery, Casket (Japanese), Nasturtium, Satchel, Nuts, Sentry Box and Handbag. | 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: | social history trade advertising tin biscuit | Temporal: | start=1909-01-01; end=1909-12-31; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
