What a very nice photo and the specia heirloom it is. How special. I have some glassware that had belonged to my greatgrandmother, and since I am theoldest grandchild, I have inherited it. I love the story behind this tin. And such a folksy picture on it's top. Thanks so much for sharing.

I like this picture and the sentiments expressed. Yes. Somethings become a part of our lives and no amount of money can take them away. it is like selling an important organ.The picture looks good and crisp despite the age.India is one of the largest growers of tea and'Indian tea (with milk and sugar is exclusive to Indian taste buds.Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you very much. You were so quick reviewing this that I don't think you could read my notes. You should go back and do that. It is an interesting story
