109. [HUNTLEY & PALMER] - THE INFAMOUS KATE GREENAWAY BISCUIT TIN. Produced in the 1980's - and immediately withdrawn from sale. A beautiful children's biscuit tin - with several hidden "naughty bits"!. Commissioned by Huntley & Palmers in the style of Kate Greenaway. With "Huntley & Palmers" copied from The Kate Greenaway Alphabet with yellow & orange letters, each with small colour figure - printed around the sides & extremely busy Kate Greenaway picture including her "Afternoon Tea" etc in full colour on the lid, with floral edging, the whole on a green background. Size: 8". v. nice example. £120.00
The story goes that a professional freelance artist had produced many tins for Huntley & Palmer, but was told by the company that this would be his last commission. Understandably hurt by this, he set about to produce this very beautiful Greenaway tin - adding a few personal touches of his own. These included a cavorting couple, beneath 2 prim & proper Kate Greenaway girls sitting in a tree, dogs fornicating close to the Tea Party, and an open "jam" jar on the table..which must have smelled terrible, judging by its label !.
Within days of the Kate Greenaway tin reaching the shops, the artist pointed-out his little "additions" - and Huntley & Palmer were forced to withdraw tens of thousands of tins from sale..but not before one wide eyed gentleman managed to get a couple of hundred – as investments for his old age...
