Dries snow white and with a beautiful gloss" JB Halley & Co. Ltd., Granville Square, London, WC1 "Halley's Golf Ball Enamel may be applied with a brush, but a better method is to put a small quantity of the enamel into the palm of the hand and roll between the palms until the ball is evenly coated. When dry apply another coating. Note:- The surface of the ball must be clean and dry before applying the enamel" This tin is one of nine unopened tins discovered in a reclamation yard roughly four years ago. Since then three have been sold through Bonhams, two on ebay and one privately. Now in the hands of private collectors, I haven't seen any come up for re-sale. Of the three remaining, I am now offering one final tin, the other two I will keep indefinately. Weight approx 115 grams, height approximately 2 1/4 inches. Some original paint can be seen between rim and lid, spillage whilst filling it seems.
