The Penny Oval Story

The Penny Oval Mustard Tin was first introduced in 1886 and illustrates how Colman's came to exploit the desire to collect. The first of the tins featured flags: the Union Flag, the Stars and Stripes, and the Imperial Russian Flag. In 1900 the flag motif was established as a series, with 22 national emblems - a modest contribution to a child's education.
