I saved paint boxes for years. When I decided to sell them, I'd put out 50 or so at a time. I soon found out that I was one of the few that had any interest in them. :(

They were childrens paintboxes. Litho on metal with numerous small blocks or tablets of paint inside - the idea was you painted whatever was on the cover of the tin.

Robin Hood, Aladdin, Toys, Ships etc
