This bright red 1-pound coffee can with its key wind lid (a style first introduced around 1917) is a wonderful piece of grocery history. The can is empty — we were unable to open it without risking damage, so it remains intact.
A striking display piece for the advertising collectibles collector or anyone drawn to mid-century American kitchen history. Increasingly hard to find in intact condition.
The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company — A&P — was once the largest retailer of any kind in the United States, a position it held from 1915 through 1975, before closing for good in 2015.
