Two Tix and travelling cases

[Kishtu]

I've just bought myself a rather handsome vanity/travelling case by a company called Two Tix - they do gents' as well as ladies' vanity cases. It's a tan leather one with all the goodies inside, all empty, including two small silver-topped pots, one silver-topped talc shaker, one silver-topped hairbrush, mirror, nail file, and silver-capped perfume bottle with a cork.

It's simply pairfect for when we do the QM weekend next year, darlings.

But apart from that, two things.... 1) does the name Two Tix mean anything to anyone? the style of the pots and the logo is very Art Deco, but..... surely it couldn't be that vintage??? for a fiver in a charity shop???

and 2) what do you put in these pots anyway??!

I have an old train case from the 50s that has a lot of the original stuff still in it. The pots are usually used for facial creams.

Thanks Kitty. There are two pots so what, a day cream and a night cream?

(I've Googled TT and it would appear they no longer exist. Boo, hiss!)

I asked an elderly friend about the train cases and she said she remembered pots for cold cream, lotion and foundation, so possibly these?

Also, can you post pictures? I'd love to see photos of your find!

Here is the original post I made about the train case I found. There's a lot of info about what was in the case and closeups of many of the containers.

I also believe these were for lotions and creams. And as an aside, there is a men's set on the 'Bay right now in the UK.
