This great round tin is green and red with a lithograph of the John Ginger character created by Huntley & Palmers in 1933 as an advertising promotion to increase sales of their famous ginger nut biscuit.The company based in Reading, England was established in 1822 (201 years ago!) and re-established in 2006 after a brief hiatus. I'm not sure of the exact date of this particular tin, but it and other H&P biscuit tins have achieved museum status for their bright, colourful and iconic designs. The tin is 8 inches in diameter and 2-1/4 inches deep. It is in very good condition, with only a couple of light scratches on the top and very little rust or staining, so it presents very well - and could still be used to store biscuits!
