    I'm running out of space on my vintage pastel yellow tile kitchen countertop for all these old red and yellow metal canisters I keep finding... <groan> These three were a recent storage locker discovery in a box I'd forgotten about, and though their decoration doesn't truly match my others, the color scheme is perfect and I think they'll look great together with the other round ones and the square pair I've already shown!! :-) :-) :-)

    And in fact are all three slightly differently sized than my other round ones, which should make them all look great displayed together with the square ones, ifn's I can make the space for them all?!! <lol> The largest here is about 7-1/4" tall & across, its mate about 7" x 6" across, and the red one 5" x 4-1/2". There are no markings or stampings on any of them to suggest a maker.

    The two yellow w/red lids seem to have been intended as countertop canisters, the small red one apparently first came full of a pound of "Swersey's Chocolates" as seen on its backside, (pic 4) but it'll fit right in with the others as if it'd always been intended to be re-used as such, which might even be the case...??!! :-) :-)
