Gold clasp and handle. Date: 1903-1904; Creator: Huntley, Boorne & Stevens; Publisher: Huntley & Palmers. A companion tin to the "Canteen" tin of 1901-1902 and the "log" tin from the same period. This was the third and last in a series of bag-shaped tins issued by Huntley & Palmers. The animal skin effect was described as 'shark skin'. 120,000 copies of this tin were produced.

Generally the paint work is good.
