Tonibell Manufacturing Co. Ltd. In 1969, the Lyons Maid ice-cream business of J. Lyons & Co. bought Tonibell for £1,750,000. The deal was between Glacier Foods Ltd, the company which controlled Lyons Maid and its associated ice-cream activities, and British American Tobacco Co. Ltd, which had bought Tonibell Manufacturing Co. Ltd in 1964. The name Tonibell is still used today.

The company produced an interesting range of cards over a three year period. It's a pity that they didn't continue.
