This time, the detective work was on this really great retro tea caddy. The design is of a gramophone, with swirls of shells, flowers, and musical notes. The colours, and style of design, are very evocative of the 60's, but there is no date on the tin. There is a sticker for the retailer on the bottom, which has an address, but no postcode. A bit of research and I've found out that Croydon, which is where the company were based, first started using postcodes in 1967, so I'm pretty sure the tin dates to before then. And with the design, and colours, I would guess at early to mid 60's.
Whatever the exact date, it's a really nice tin, in really good vintage condition,
