Hi all, I am new to tin collecting and bought this tin over the weekend at a car boot. Its a nice tin from London but I can't find any info on Baiss Brothers & co. Any information about it would be great and is it a worthy tin to have in a collection?

 

Hi,
Welcome to the forum and to the noble hobby of tin collecting. One thing you've got there is very early with the craquleur finish. Probably 1880s.
Nice thing and a good find from a boot. All tins are worthy!
You may wish to specialise or just carry on hitting the boot fairs. Its still out there. I've found some crackers at boot sales.

 Thanks for the information Jez. Yeah I am just buying anything thats takes my fancy at the moment really. I also bought this one from the same car boot, I have no idea if they are worth anything but i thought its nice.

Unusual its printed both sides. I assume its the same Epps who made cocoa. Its another good little tin.

Great tins, your top one is nice and early, say 1890? JuJubes is c1910?

keep going, you have a good eye.

Cheers

Al.

PS. If you want any tins form the shop I can post about 50 or so for £10!
