Shop 101 - Vintage Advertising & Biscuit Tins in Tacoma WA

Milk-Bone, Nestle, Cadbury & Barnum's Animals litho tins by the dozen...

Visit Shop 101, where vintage advertising and biscuit tins cover the front counters in rows. Branded food and confection tins lead the run. A Milk-Bone Dog Biscuits tin sits beside Nestle and Cadbury chocolate tins, a Planters Peanuts tin, and a Barnum's Animals National Biscuit Company barrel tin. Figural tins sit among them, including blue sedan and red coupe car tins and a fox-in-costume character tin. Decorative litho tins fill the rest: fruit-and-harvest lids, an English thatched-cottage tin, a Mother-and-child heart tin, a pheasant tin, and a Wedgwood-blue jasperware-motif tin. A Disney Mickey and Minnie tin and a Snickers tin round out the branded finds. Round, heart-shaped, square, and rectangular tins run the length of both counters, some stacked two and three high.

The surrounding shelves hold a broad mix beyond the tins. Vintage kitchen tools spread across one counter: box graters, a rotary hand beater, a lever nutcracker, a citrus juicer press, and a figural character-head shaker. A brown Tonka pressed-steel truck and matching trailer sit on the case top. Luster-glass hurricane vases, crystal votive holders, and a decorative white metal birdcage stand share the display shelving. A black rotary telephone, silverplate serving pieces, a stoneware pitcher, and a framed Faith scripture print fill in around them.

Two acoustic guitars stand along the back wall, one natural-finish dreadnought and one darker classical. A thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle, a Paris-themed print, and assorted glassware sit on the tiered wire racks. More advertising and biscuit tins carry across the lower shelves, including a Vickers tin and additional English confectionery lids. The tins stay the anchor here, from branded confection and dog-biscuit tins to figural car tins and decorative English litho lids across several decades. Browse the Campbell's Soup Kids Advertising at Shop 25 and the Cookbooks, Ephemera and Kitsch at Shop 36 for related finds.
