authentic antique 1 lb. La Kreem Pure Coffee tin canister manufactured by Montgomery Mills in Jersey City, New Jersey. This stunning piece of early 20th-century Americana features a striking, highly reflective gold lithographed finish with a bold classic coffee cup graphic.
Unlike the more common miniature sample variants, this is the full-sized 1 lb. display piece, making it a prime addition for serious antique advertising, country store, or tobacciana/coffee tin collectors.
Condition & Features:
• Graphics & Color: Exceptional preservation. The gold metallic lithography remains brilliantly bright and reflective with crisp black lettering. Minor surface wear and light patina consistent with age, but no major scratches, fading, or heavy distracting rust on the face.
• Lid: Comes with its original, intricately patterned metal lid. The top features beautifully detailed floral/geometric litho work, legible patent numbers (PAT. 1443682 - 1621497), and crisp, clear stamping that reads "STEEL CUT" and "TO OPEN TURN".
• Structure: Excellent structural integrity. The tin retains its proper shape with no major dents or crushing. The bottom rim is secure and clean.
