New in - vintage tins

I had a lovely sunny weekend and what makes such a lovely weekend a GREAT weekend? A a flea-market off course!
... and who am I to say 'no thanks' when passing these beauties:





Couldn't find much on the ink-powder-tin, Ed. Devillers was an ink-manufacturer in Paris in the early 1900s.



The Allenburys Throat Pastilles tin is probably from the late 1800s (1850-1910) judging by their can-design-history. Although all the pictures I can find are from cans with rounded edges and mine has straight ones...



grts,
J.
