Comments:    This "Keen, Robinson and Co. Ltd" transfer printed mustard tin is very nicely decorated with an overall golden sheen. The quality of the illustrations is very good and show scenes of fruit, birds and butterflies. The corners of the tin are decorated with children collecting fruit and having a picnic by the river. This company was founded in 1742 at Garlick Hill in London and produced many fine tins to promote their mustard sales. The condition of the tin is very good, the lid has a few minor scuffs.
