The featured Walton's Ltd tin would date around the mid 1920s. A fair number have survived, but very good condition tins are hard-to-get.
Walton's Ltd who were manufacturing confectioners of Grote St, Adelaide, trade mark registered Betty Brown on 30.7.1924.
Alfred Walton founded the original business in 1876, from retail premises in Rundle Street, later manufacturing from premises in Twin Street, Adelaide.
Alfred built and occupied his new Grote Street factory around 1903.
Alf's son John stayed on at the Twin Street factory and both businesses were operated at the same time. |
