This is the famous rare 1980 Huntley and Palmer Xmas tin that was withdrawn from sale. For those who do not know the story, this design was by Kate Greenway and shows a tea party in a summer garden. Unfortunately a disgruntled employee 'added' a couple of extra scenes!!. one is of a couple of dogs busying themselves in the bushes and the other is of a couple engaged in a similar activity in the background. Once the mistake was noticed the tin was hastly withdrawn from sale. This example of the banned tin is in nr mint condition. Also included is a photocopy of the newpaper headline that revealed the story.
