The London Transport Museum don't recognise it as being specifically transport related, so it could well be that it's just an unusual old tin that happens to have a collection of Tramways tokens in it. No one on the list has been able to suggest otherwise, yet...!

I do not know where the tin came from though. I am 47!

It has three compartments (two accessed by lifting flaps at either end, and one accessed by sliding a cover at centre). There are South Shields Corporation Tramways / Transport tokens in the central compartment. I'm assuming it would be a box used by a conductor / ticket collector on the trams, but if anyone can confirm or give me more info / background etc that would be most helpful! I saw one on eBay recently, but the listing didn't give me any extra information. Mine is 187 mm long x 96 mm deep x 32 mm high.
