Packed in tin cooperative display crop, 26 Aug 1923 San Antonio Light

This crop keeps the full display width of the cooperative block on page 61: the “Packed in Tin to Keep the Original Flavor In” headline stack, the New Orleans Can Company identification and lithography boast, and the halftone product vignettes where Hoffmann–Hayman tins (coffee and tea, including Orange Pekoe) sit in the same visual field as the can-house pitch—so readers see trade dress and supplier narrative together, not isolated pack shots.

For H and H, the frame matters because it is primary-source packaging politics: the firm is shown endorsing tin as the freshness system while naming New Orleans Can as the lithography source for coffee, tea, and spices—the storyline the full clipping post develops for tins and lithography research. For a single-tin read on Orange Pekoe, use the closer isolate: H and H Orange Pekoe Tea tin — Packed in tin ad.
