Summary

[edit]
Description Vintage toffee tin dated between 1887 and 1891, originally sold by John Farrah's toffee shop in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. John Farrah's signature (mostly obliterated on this old tin) was registered in 1887. There is no "England" marking on this product, which possibly dates it to before the international effect of the McKinley Tariff Act of 1890, which required US imports to be labelled with country of origin. The 1840 date on the tin refers to the year in which John Hudson Swan invented the toffee recipe.
