    Woda kitty is helping display this little hinged lid tin that used to hold BOSTON HARBOUR TEA, "BAWSTONABA" REGISTERED, Blended and Packed by DAVISON NEWMAN & Co.Ltd. of London. It is about 3-1/2" square and 4-1/2" tall, now containing some elderly looking packets of LIPTON Flo-Thru Teabags and a taped newspaper clipping titled "HERE ARE TIPS for making a good cup of tea:" on the inside of the lid. I do not know how old it is, a cursory googles look didn't reveal much of anything.

      I love this tea, but did you know they still make this tea and sell it these tins?
