gypsy cream biscuits

[kerkyras]

I am hoping that someone out there may know of the existence of an old biscuit tin which was called 'Gypsy Creams'. They have been out of production for many a year, but it's possible someone may have or know someone who may have an old tin, maybe in a cupboard or sideboard containing buttons or such like!!.
The reason I am asking is that the lady on the tin is actually one of my ancestors, namely my maternal grandmother's aunt. Her name is Maggie Blyth, and she was one of a family of beautiful looking women, who were of the travelling ilk.
It would such a find if one can be found somewhere out there.
Hoping to hear some good news. Thanks

I googled and found this less well known auction site, but it seems to specialise in antique biscuit tins!

There's a picture of a gypsy biscuit tin made by Huntley & Palmer on this website:

Could it be the one you're looking for?
