British Horlicks tablets "ration" tin
Hi Guys, this one, while strictly speaking is not a "ration tin" as such, but it is more a clever bit of marketing by the makers of Horlicks
There also exists a version with "as supplied to the ARP".
But it is still a nice wartime tin in good condition.
I don't think you can buy Horlicks tablets today, but I remember them as a kid in the 1960's.
Cheers, Ade.

Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Alas, Horlicks stopped u.k. production of these yummy tablets in the 80's. They are still available in the States and Hong Kong and Malaysia available in chocolate or original flavours. These days they are called Horlicks 'Malties'.
