Vintage Monarch Tea Tin Reid, Murdoch & Co.

Early 20th-century black tea tin with stunning graphics and rich branding history. Features a central portrait medallion, scenic tea field illustration, and ornate columns — all in vivid color on a deep navy base. From a Chicago–Boston–Pittsburgh–New York distribution era, this piece reflects the golden age of American packaging design. Great patina, clean edges, and original lid intact. Perfect for shelf styling, kitchen vignettes, or vintage advertising collections. A rare survivor with strong visual impact. Measures 4 1/4 inches high, 3 1/2 wide. There are no dents or rust but there is some wear in the graphics. Could not open the top to show inside as felt very difficult to move and did not want to risk tin damage. From a smoke free home.
