    I bought this for the graphics. Was in my local thrift shop along with another tin which I will post separately. This is hinged and on the heavy side, so a quality piece of work.

    27cm x 20cm x 7cm

    Not too much information about Barratt's itself.

      verrecheque, thanks for the link.

      Manikin, valentino97 - I see many tins in my thrift shop travels, but not one as vintage or as nice as this one.

      Thanks, everybody! I am now using both tins to store jewelry - the stuff that's for sale is in the big tin and the stuff I want to list is in the smaller tin. Perfect.
