Lot of seven Sharp's toffee tins. Sharp's did a lot of tins in the form of parrot cages, houses and toy drums. First is a very large toy drum tin, c. 1920, in very good condition with some spotting to the lid and overall. Second is a smaller version of the first, with dents that could be pushed out, paint losses and rust, but is shiny. Third is a smaller yet version of the first two, in good condition with only minor dents and scuffs and with a slot in the top, and so could be used as a bank. Fourth is a small parrot cage in very good condition with Sir Kreemy Nut, the dandy figure, feeding his parrot, Kreemy. Fifth is another version of the fourth, this one in a milk churn shape with a handle, also with Sir Kreemy Nut and Kreemy, reading "It Speaks for Itself" on the side. Sixth is a Sharp's sand pail, c. 1950, with beach scenes around and in very good condition. Seventh is a medium size Kreemy Cottage house tin, with pictures of Kreemy Nut on it. The front and sides have creases, bends and distortions, the roof being quite dented on the back.
Condition: (Good - Very Good).
