Title: OLD BLUE *HORNER* TIN...
Post by: antiquerose123 on February 16, 2008, 08:56:25 PM

I had to confess here.....but I probably have 20-30 old tins here. 

This is my latest one.  I have them all stored away, but once I am able to get to them, and lift them down (after recovery)....I will post some of those.  For right now just this oneto post.  That is WHY it is easy to reach....it is not put anywhere yet...lol

Got for one dollar here....

That's nice Rose.

So, other than the novelty tins, is there something I should be looking out for?

http://search.rubylane.com/search/,id=49.10.html  30 or so pages here...gives you a good idea.  Some old ones are worth $$, and also due to tinware design, lithograph, and advertising logo...

and the Old Blue Bird tins  http://www.bluebird-electric.net/blue_bird_toffees.htm
