This "Three Witches" tobacco tin manufactured by B.Morris & Sons, Ltd, 21/29, Mansell St, London E, and previously at Half Moon Passage, Aldgate, E. London. Founded in 1810 and established in London about 1826. The firm also had control of "Cabana Cigar Co" - "Ottoman Cigarette Co," - "E Levy & Sons" and "Albert & Bromet". They had a tremendous range of brands in both tobacco & cigarettes. This brand was introduced about 1910 and withdrawn in 1940. Anyone come across this brand before????

Nope - never heard of it before!

Amazingly one of these turned up at YORK at the weekend which shows the quality of the show . It was snaffled up by a well known " all things tobacco / Cigarettes " collector so it went to the right home !!

 Hi Lummox,

How interesting that 2 of these tins should show up at 2 different events, one in south and the other up North within a few weeks of each other. Could not make the York show but glad that it seemed successful and good purchase for Andy.
