A Pair of WWII Era Nescafé Instant Coffee Tins
A pair of cylindrical tinplate advertising containers for Nescafé Instant Coffee, dating to the mid-20th century. Web intelligence identifies this specific design as being associated with WWII era field rations and military surplus. Each tin features a press-fit lid with lithographed graphics including the brand name Nescafé with an elongated horizontal bar on the N, a central white downward-pointing triangular motif, and the words Instant and Coffee curved along the lower edge. The bodies of the tins are constructed with a vertical seam, with one tin retaining some original silver-toned finish along the seam. The bodies are currently devoid of legible branding or text.
