Vintage Peanuts Tin Appraisal

Chex Party Mix & Peanuts Holiday Collectible Tin (Peanuts Characters)

This is a circular, light blue metal tin, likely designed for foodstuffs, specifically a 'Chex Party Mix & Peanuts'. The top features a vibrant graphic of characters from the Peanuts comic strip, including Snoopy, Woodstock, Charlie Brown, and an unidentifiable character (potentially Linus or another friend). All characters are depicted wearing winter hats, suggesting a holiday or winter theme. Snoopy appears to be ice skating or dancing, while Woodstock flies nearby. Charlie Brown and the other character are shown from the chest up, looking towards the center of the tin where a large image of Chex Party Mix is displayed. The design incorporates small white dots, simulating falling snow. Around the perimeter of the lid, in white block lettering, are the phrases "SHARE THAT HOLIDAY FEELING" and "WITH CHEX™ PARTY MIX & PEANUTS!". The tin appears to be in excellent condition with no visible dents, scratches, or significant wear. The colors are bright and crisp, indicating good preservation. Given the holiday motif and the Chex/Peanuts branding, it likely dates to a contemporary or recent holiday season, perhaps from the 2010s or 2020s. Its construction is typical of mass-produced decorative food tins, featuring a rolled edge and a fitted lid, though the lid itself is not visible in the provided image. The quality of the graphics is clean and sharp, indicating good printing and a factory finish. Its primary value would be as a collectible for Peanuts enthusiasts or as a decorative storage tin.
