Well it's Nov. 18th and there are 32 posts on the initial "November Pickup Thread"...getting a little long...so starting up a new one.

I picked up a new tin for my tin collection....it's a c1918 Quarterback Coffee tin and was produced by The Dolan Mercantile Co. St. Joseph, MO and Atchison, KS. It measures 3 5/8 inches tall and a diameter of 5 3/4 inches. This is the only example of this tin I've seen, and was a natural fit for my collection..I'd say it's one of the nicest tins I've seen, so I was determined to work it into my other tins even though I'm maxed out of room. I had to move out some lesser ones to fit it in.

I've posted photos of my tin collection before, but here's a new one with Quarterback Coffee installed in the line up, along with a close in shot
