 Picked up this little straggler on eBay recently. Doe's anyone have a better example to show or give a little insight into its history?

 Hi Bevan,

Your "Sea & Shore" brand was introduced around 1898 by W A & A C .Churchman of Portman Rd, Ipswich. This was a very old Tobacco & Snuff manfacturing company first established in 1790 as Churchman & Son. They took over Hubbard & Co in 1895 and in 1902 became a branch of the Imperial Tobacco Co Ltd. Your "Sea & Shore" brand were short lived according to records. I thought I had a photo, but can't find it at the moment.

HI Bacco,

Many thanks for the info. I looked as though it was turn of the century. If you find the photo that would be great.

Nice one Bevend. Pity about the condition (obviously). Be great to see a cleaner example.

 Hi Bevand,

Found the photo, although still pitted, it is a better than yours.
