Background Information:
Founded in 1932 in Zegwaart by Adriaan van Well, De SPAR is an international supermarket chain known for its collaboration with independent grocers. This partnership allows the stores to purchase and advertise collectively, giving them a competitive advantage. The name SPAR comes from the Dutch motto "Door Eendrachtig Samenwerken Profiteren Allen Regelmatig" (Through United Cooperation, All Benefit Regularly).

Fairy tales, which this tin references, are traditional folk stories often involving magic and fantasy. They typically begin with the phrase "Once upon a time..." and contain moral lessons or wisdom. This genre is closely related to fables and exists in various forms around the world.

This vintage biscuit tin is not only functional but also a beautiful decorative object that tells stories. It's perfect for collectors or as a unique item in your kitchen. Let this tin be a conversation piece and bring the magic of fairy tales into your home!
