Caswell's National Crest Coffee Tin

We're one of those "cult followers" of the George Caswell Coffee Company.  Here is one of their tins from almost 100 years ago, copyright dated 1921, with Price $1.05 stamped on the lid!

This tin is a great piece of nostalgia.  It does show some wear with rust spots on the inside and a small dent and scratch on the one side, which we've tried to show in the one close-up picture. 
That said, the colors are still vibrant and beautiful.

We came across this and just had to have it, but are willing to pass it along to someone who can appreciate the rich history of Caswell's Coffee Company in the San Francisco bay area from the turn of the century.

The tin is 7.25" tall and 5.5" diameter.

P.S.  The spoon shown below would be a perfect complement to this tin!
