The purpose of this site is to show examples of some of the many tins that are available to collectors.
Most of those pictured are food and non-food products. The most collectible tins have no plastic lids
or paper labels.
Prices are what you might expect to pay for a tin in perfect condition in an
antique shop. The biggest bargains are found at yard sales, thrift shops and flea markets. Prices vary
from one area to another. As a general rule, those tins that were offered as a mail-in offer, given to
employees who worked for those companies or given as a premium to retailers, would be harder to find
and therefore are priced a bit higher. Those that are offered in all stores during the holidays are much
more common and priced much lower. Age and condition will help determine price as well as
actual prices paid for tins ie; ebay. Prices shown are in U.S. Funds.
Most tins pictured are from
the 1980's and 1990's with a few from the the 1970's or before.
This guide is only to be used
as such and do not actually reflect the price that you may pay for a specific tin.
