British Biscuit Tins



Tracy decided to collect tins because they were cheap, but only a few months passed before she discovered that they didn't have to be...
The collection was started in 1982 and began with non-biscuit tins, however it wasn't long before she was completely hooked on Huntley & Palmers tins and it took over her whole life (nearly).
The collection spans the period 1870 to 1998.



Part of the collection in 1987.




Two pictures of the tins on display in 1998.



These are the tins Tracy collected first the tallest is less than 2 inches high.



Recent additions to the collection, including sample tins, Tracy's current passion.



Sample tins and miniatures on display, also some related pices such as a draughts board and mirrors. (In the bottom of the display stand).
