Description

This vintage Monarch chili powder tin, which measures 7 inches tall, is a colorful piece from the mid-20th century. The tin is adorned with a striking design featuring the Monarch brand's iconic lion logo, set against a white background with bold red and blue accents. Labeled as containing "Extra Fancy Chili Powder," this container once held 5 pounds of a balanced blend of chili pepper, cumin, oregano, salt, and garlic, distributed by Consolidated Foods Corporation based in Chicago, Illinois. 

The tin shows signs of wear including scratches, rust spots, and paint loss, which add a genuine vintage feel to the piece. Its distinctive graphics and bright colors make it a charming collectible, perfect for enthusiasts of retro advertising or as a decorative item in a kitchen or dining area with a vintage or Americana theme.
