Art Deco on a Tin
Posted in Architecture, Art Deco at 12:00 on 13 October 2021
I spotted the tin whose lid is shown below in an antique shop.
The picture on it is of the Coop drapery in Workington as it was back in the day:-
I didn’t buy the tin. Since we moved to Son of the Rock Acres I don’t have room to display the ones I already have.

Intrigued by this tin. Where was it for sale? My great-grandfather managed that Co-op in the 1910s-1920s. Thanks John

John,
It was in an antique centre in Inverkeithing. Goodness knows how it got there.
Hope it brought back good memories for you.
