Collectors judge advertising tins by product, color, design and condition.

 A tin for expensive candy is more desirable than a tin for acne cream.

Similarly.

Bright reds will generally outperform dull browns.

Dents, paint loss and rust severely diminish the value of a tin.

 The majority of collected tins date from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.



 There is quite a market out there for these.

And if your lucky enough to live in a drier climate you will be surprised at how well these have kept.



 As the years go by these little treasures become more scarce surcomming to the elements and neglect.

 A true picture of the past and to me it is a view of the past and what my grandparents and great grandparents saw everyday.

   Some can be called works of art.
