286. HUNTLEY &
PALMERS TRIBREK TIN
PLATE LORRY BISCUIT TIN. 8.8 x
4.1 3.6ins. The absolute gem of this small
single owner collection - as near as you could
ever get to MINT & BOXED! Produced from 1937 to 1940,
nber plate of HP 1 937. Advertising Breakfast Biscuits one side,
Guinger Nuts to other. The breakfast food was advertised under the
claim of producing strong & sturdy growth of the generation of tomorrow,
advising it did not clog the teeth? However, the Huntley 1938 catalogue has the same
tin filled with small shortcake. A rare design with rear door opening as opposed to roof. Note
driver does not appear in front window. One o0f the very last novelty tins made before World War ll. Exceptional condition, even more exceptional to find the original, good condition box. 9.5/10.
