The lid depicts a portrait of a boy surrounded by decorative acanthus scrolls, a classic advertising image intended to convey trust and quality. The side panel carries the product label \"Superior Geliypear, Sirop de Poires, Sucre 40% Coloré\". The tin has a lived-in patina with visible signs of use, a plain metal interior, and the original lid present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeliypear was a Belgian pear sweet based on pear syrup, a product common in Belgian confectionery during the first half of the twentieth century. Prosman Frères of Momalle, a small municipality in the province of Liège, was one of the regional producers who brought such sweets to market in lithographically printed tins. The boy on the lid is a classic motif of early-twentieth-century food packaging: innocence as an advertising message. The patina and lithographic work make this tin a document of the Belgian regional food industry at a moment that has left almost no other trace.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Collectionist","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56474232193348,"sku":"7","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0530\/1442\/9896\/files\/vintage-belgisch-snoepblik-geliypear-perensnoep-prosman-freres-momalle-5883838.jpg?v=1772846007","url":"https:\/\/thecollectionist.nl\/en\/products\/candy-tin-geliypear-sirop-de-poires-prosman-freres","provider":"The Collectionist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
