Vintage Christmas Tin - Skaters - Elkes Tin - 1960's

These vintage Christmas tins were once filled with Elkes biscuits. The lid has a vibrant picture of skaters in Victorian costume with crinolines swinging and lots of fur trimmed bonnets - nostalgia at it's best! The sides show more skaters and a man pushing a sleigh. Two sides have "Christmas Assorted Biscuits" printed on.
There are two tins available, both with the same design. The large one dates from the late 1950's and measures 23.5cm x 22cm x 11m so is perfect for holding a cake or Christmas biscuit assortment of your own. It has rounded corners to the lid and base and is in very good condition with only light scratches and wear. The base and inside are clean.
The smaller one is an earlier version with squared corners and lovely rolled edges to the base. It's still in pretty good shape with wear to the edges and corners and some light scratches and pitting to the lid. The lid fits snugly and there is some tarnishing to the base and inside but nothing terrible. It measures 23cm x 22cm x 5.5cm.
