Wonderful antique Just Suits Cut Plug Tobacco advertising tin made for Buchanan & Lyall of New York, New York. This early lithographed metal tobacco pail has a terrific red-and-gold advertising design reading “Just Suits Cut Plug,” along with the Buchanan & Lyall BL trademark.
These tobacco tins were commonly reused as lunch pails, storage boxes, and general-store advertising pieces. This one retains its hinged lid, wire lid handle, and original wooden carry-handle pieces. The wooden carry handle is in excellent condition.
Approximate measurements:
Length: 7 3/4 inchesWidth: 5 1/8 inchesHeight: 4 1/2 inches without handle
This is in good antique condition with heavy, honest wear from age and use. It has paint loss, surface scratches, oxidation, rust, discoloration, worn graphics, and small dents or dings. The back has significant rust, while the front still displays beautifully with its original red-and-gold Just Suits graphics.
The hinged lid opens and closes, but the front latch does not latch correctly. Please carefully examine all photographs, as they are part of the description and show the exact condition.
This item comes from an estate. Its previous household and storage history are unknown.
We want every buyer to feel comfortable purchasing from us. Because one member of our family is sight-challenged, we understand that photographs and written descriptions may not reveal every detail equally to every person. Please review all photographs carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
LET’S DICKER! Dickering is becoming a lost American tradition, and we genuinely welcome reasonable offers.
The Covered Cauldron is a small, family-run business currently helping liquidate three family estates. We enjoy giving interesting vintage possessions a second chance instead of allowing them to end up in a landfill. Please browse our other listings—you never know what might surface next!
