Sunshine Biscuits Across The Continent & American Express Train Tin & Tray 1982

The Sunshine Biscuits Across The Continent & American Express Train Tin & Tray set from 1982 is a collectible advertising item showcasing the iconic Sunshine Biscuits brand. Made in the United States, this multi-color tin features a unique design with dimensions of 3 3/4 inches in height, 11 5/8 inches in depth, and 14 1/2 inches in width. Weighing 1 pound and 11.7 ounces, this vintage piece is a nostalgic keepsake for collectors of merchandise and memorabilia.

Sunshine Biscuits Cookie Tin American Express Train Continent Courrier Ives

This is a Sunshine Biscuits large tin from 1982, with top and bottom lid being removeable to make two trays for use or display, each lid featuring a train themed scene from Courrier & Ives, including “American Express Train” and “Across the Continent”. The tin does have flaws, such as some wear, scratching, discoloration/light rust. The Across the Continent lid has some small dents around the rim that hold it tightly into the ring, so it is more difficult to remove from the ring. I do not know if these are part of the design, or added later by an owner. Rim around this one is also slightly misshapen. Please see photos and feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking!
