Collecting Tea Tins?

I’ve been watching a lot of shows like American Pickers and Pawn Stars and the subject matter is usually about antique collectibles and I was curious – does anyone know is there is a market for antique tea canisters and if not, do you think there ever will be one? Man, I have such strange interests for a 17 year old… :)

You have excellent interests :)
I know that some older English tea tins sell for around 13 -16 each right now.
Just from my own browsing of them.

In Canada and on Canadian Pickers, they often go after old tea tins & old metal tea signs. I am trying to get my hands on a few. I have family who work in a second hand store & he’s got his eyes peeled for some for me.

That’s really cool. I’ve never once seen them go for tea tins or signs on American Pickers, I guess Canada’s probably a bigger tea drinking country than the US.
