Special Notes: This tin is typical of the type of containers which many products came in beginning in the mid-1800s until the present, such as candy, cookies, pop corn, etc. Many came with lids that are quite stable when tossed with a flick of the wrist. A pop corn can lid served as the inspiration in 1937 for Fred Morrison who soon graduated to cake pans and went on to develop the first plastic flying disc in 1948: the Pipco Flying-Saucer.
