An old empty tin of infant feed by Horlicks of Slough.  The tin has been stored in an old shed for many years and as a result the lid, rims and inside have varying degrees of rust as can be seen from the pictures.  However, despite the odd scratch here and there, the print and information contained on the outside of the tin is still quite clear and legible and the tin itself is sound, despite the rust.

There are some interesting references on the tin including a table detailing an infant feeding schedule and a 'By Appointment to the late King George VI' notice.   There appear to be quite a few Horlicks Malted Milk Tablet tins around but I have been unable to find anything which resembles this example of a Horlicks food product for infants, children and expectant and nursing mothers.  A nice collectors item and one with an element of historical interest.

I have taken pictures to show the painted labelling and condition.

All items come from a smoke and pet free home.  

I do not seek to make a profit from postage charges and will be more than happy to offer a combined postage discount for multiple purchases, but please contact me before paying so that I can discount your total invoice as I am unable to offer retrospective refunds once payment has been made.

All items will be shipped within 2 working days and will be sent by standard Royal Mail second class post but if an item is required urgently please contact me and I will try to assist.

I will be listing a lot of other bits and pieces so please check out my other items.  I will not sell any items I would not be happy to received and I do my best to describe them as accurately as possible but if you should experience a problem then please contact me before leaving feedback, as I would welcome the opportunity to resolve any issues you may have.


Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Thank you for looking.
