Description
A charming vintage St. Kew Biscuits book‑shaped tin titled “The Little Lost Bear”. Designed to resemble an open children’s storybook, this tin originally held St. Kew’s traditional biscuits and now makes a delightful collectable for teddy‑bear lovers, tin collectors and fans of nostalgic packaging.
The tin features warm illustrations of Edward the Bear on both inner panels, along with printed story text in classic nursery‑book style. It shows a few light ripples and surface marks from age and handling, but still displays beautifully. The interior is clean and the colours remain bright. Size 24 x 18 x7cm
