History and use
This limited edition biscuit tin was produced as a commemorative souvenir of the centenary of World War 1 and the ANZAC legend. The limited edition tins were a joint venture between Modern Baking company and the Returned Services League of Australia (RSL). The baking company has produced ANZAC biscuits for many years. Anzac biscuits have come to symbolise the war and especially the Gallipoli campaign.
