Lot of two British biscuit tins in the form of lighthouses. The first is a rare Dunmore Victorian biscuit tin, "Lighthouse", c. 1894, also functioning as a bank with a slot in the top. Nicely illustrated and finely detailed all over, showing people sitting outside the lighthouse. Rather dark, but in good condition. The second is Hughes Biscuits "Lighthouse" tin, c. 1925, with a more 1920's-type printing with less detail, but a nice brick lighthouse with an interesting design, as there is a place to put a nightlight in the top. Some scuffs on the body and the black on the top is discolored.
Condition: (Good).
Item Dimensions: Largest: 4 - 1/4" x 4 - 1/4" x 10 - 1/2".
