Collected many tins over many travels but these have stood out because i literally can't seem to find any information about them at all and everything needs a story unfortunately these little buggers haven't got there's yet, Any information at all would be greatly appreciated.

Don't have a clue but they are nice pieces!! I'd guess the red one in from England?

You forgot pill box.

I'm a huge fan of the Teddy red tin pretty unique,

I do know the pill box bluebird picture is the "gilded songbird iv" but I'm not sure if it was a custom made it feels some sort of acrylic or apoxy so I'm assuming it's probably a DIY but regardless still a beautiful find for the collection.

From what I can see is the Teddy tin is from the 90's,
The Broadcast tin is from the early 40's.
The Santa is there any info on tin as who made it?
The compact/pill box seen similar looking lid pictures from years ago. (just can't remember age)

Interesting for sure. I really like the cat. I do see old tins for sale from time to time and even pick them up and study them for a bit, but I've never went ahead and purchased any. Maybe I'll put them on my list of, need to know more. No telling what I might be leaving behind.

I believe the cat is a design from the old artwork for Alice in wonderland.

I went to a garage sale and picked up a lucky hit tobacco tin from way back I think 1900s in pretty spiffy condition great union jack design for $1 and ever since then my brain will not let me walk past another tin. Unless I already have it.

I will have a closer inspection with the old glass of magnification and see if there is anything.
