 Hi! Does anybody, by any chance has any information for this tobacco tin?

The only thing I have managed to find is that maybe dates from 1940.Pre WW II  from this website, an antique shop in the States, which has a similar to mine.

Thank you in advance.

Hi solocollector,

Your "Old Bonded" brand tobacco/cigarettes was manufactured by a small company Sadler & Moore Bishopsgate, London. Not much info on this company at the moment. They also manufactured "Old Sport" cigarettes. Date betwwen the wars I would say. I have posted my counter tin of this company.
