A liittle google-fu tells me its a Sir Thomas Lipton, named for the man who founded Lipton Tea. If they are indeed from the time he was alive, chances are they were used as an advertisement for himself and Lipton Tea, which could date them back to the 1890s on up to the early 1900s. Either way, a cool find.
