Louis Sherry tin

Description

Metal tin with “Louis Sherry, New York” on the top. It originally held the 24 set of chocolates. Outside of lid needs cleaning due to dust build up…don’t want to try! Slight scuff on lid as well, but repairable. The rest of the tin is in remarkable condition, colours so vibrant. I’m thinking it’s from the ‘30s or ‘50s. Lid is double layered to keep chocolates fresh.
