Preloved The Twelve Days of Christmas Tin
 
 
This image is of a decorative tin featuring illustrations of the gifts from the traditional Christmas carol, "The Twelve Days of Christmas". 
The carol is a cumulative song listing a series of gifts given by a "true love" on each of the twelve days of Christmas, starting on Christmas Day and ending on January 6th (Epiphany). 
The gifts are presented in order: a partridge in a pear tree, two turtle doves, three french hens, four calling birds, five golden rings, six geese a-laying, seven swans a-swimming, eight maids a-milking, nine ladies dancing, ten lords a-leaping, eleven pipers piping, and twelve drummers drumming. 
The images on the tin appear to be based on the illustrations from the Great Britain 1977 Christmas stamps designed by David Gentleman. 
The tin is a "Traditionally Made Selection", suggesting it likely contained r biscuits.
 
Measuring 20cm x 20cm, with a height of 6.6cm. 
 
It has a few light scratches, several dints and some general scuffing but still displays wonderfully well.
