A bear eating chocolate chip cookies beside a red barn, with a yellow 1930s roadster. Signed "Ryan." There's a whole story here.
Fresh Beginnings, Inc. of Valdosta, Georgia was founded by Judy and Hugh Hathcock to ship fresh chocolate chip cookies nationwide — their #1 bestseller. Their parent company serves the automotive industry, which explains the charming scene on this navy blue tin lid: a cheerful bear with a classic yellow roadster by a red barn, painted and signed by artist Ryan. The yellow stripe along the lid border echoes the car. Excellent condition — no chips, dents, scratches, or rust, inside or out.
A wonderful piece for the cookie tin collector, the vintage car enthusiast, or anyone who loves country and farmhouse décor. A real conversation starter.
