{"product_id":"vintage-hema-koekblik-onverwachts-visite","title":"Cookie Tin HEMA, Onverwachts visite, Advertising Tin, 1950s","description":"\u003cp\u003eA vintage Dutch cookie tin by HEMA, dating from the 1950s, with the advertising text \"Onverwachts visite?\" and the slogan \"Elk koekje een tractatie\" on the lid. The tin features a graphic design in pink and cream with vertical stripes, a 1950s-style illustration of a woman's face, and images of biscuits. The side panel shows a HEMA shop counter with the text \"Alléén bij de Hema\". The tin has a removable lid and shows signs of use and light wear to the exterior, consistent with its age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of tin served simultaneously as packaging for loose biscuits sold at the HEMA counter and as a promotional object for the stores themselves. The graphic style speaks directly to Dutch retail culture of the postwar reconstruction years: optimistic, domestic, and instantly recognizable. HEMA advertising tins from this period are collected as documents of postwar Dutch consumer design, a genre that developed its own distinct aesthetic outside the international design canon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Collectionist","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56474364739908,"sku":"7","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0530\/1442\/9896\/files\/vintage-hema-koekblik-onverwachts-visite-reclameblik-7041945.jpg?v=1772846015","url":"https:\/\/thecollectionist.nl\/en\/products\/cookie-tin-hema-onverwachts-visite-1950s","provider":"The Collectionist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
