Vintage Calumet Double-Acting Baking Powder 10 lb. Advertising Tin with Embossed Lid
Up for sale is an authentic, vintage 10 lb. Calumet Double-Acting Baking Powder advertising tin issued by the General Foods Corporation. This large-size store or bakery display canister features the iconic Native American chief logo and classic mid-century red, white, and blue graphics.
What makes this specific piece a true collector's item is its exceptional structural condition:
- Pristine Interior: The inside of the tin is incredibly clean and remarkably free of heavy rust or pitting, which is very rare for industrial kitchen containers of this age.
- Original Embossed Lid: Includes the original, tight-fitting metal lid featuring clearly stamped testing instructions mirrored on the inside face.
- Dimensions: Stands approximately 8.25” tall with a 7” diameter.
Condition Notes:
Used vintage condition with wonderful, authentic exterior patina. The color lithography remains vibrant and makes for an eye-catching display. Minor surface wear and edge patina present on the metal rims as pictured, consistent with age and shelf life. No major dents or compromises to the structural integrity. Clean enough to use for rustic dry storage or as a primitive centerpiece in a farmhouse kitchen, restaurant, or general store display!
Please review all high-resolution photos carefully to evaluate the exact cosmetic condition before purchasing. Sold as-is.
