Has the countdown begun? It's three months 'til Christmas!
To help you get into the spirit, a vintage Sixties cookie tin—bright red with a screened Santa on the cover. It was made for Laub's holiday cookies. Laub's was founded by German immigrant, Jacob Laub, in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1889. In time, it became the largest independent baker in all of Ohio with a bakery storefront, bread delivery routes, and a brisk wholesale operation to restaurants, hospitals and grocery stores.
The tin is still great for presenting your homemade cookies—or holding any number of Christmas-related items: ornaments, ribbon, or ornament hooks. It is also a nice place to store vintage Christmas cards and photos—the ones you'd like to save for future seasons. Click on the photo above to learn more about this handsome tin.
