ELVY rare packaging for shoe polishing

Collectible, very very rare vintage metal shoe polish (boot polish) tin from the brand ELVY, featuring a distinctive black and white lithographic depiction on its lid. On the underside of the lid, usage instructions in Greek are visible ("ΔΙΑ ΤΟ ΑΝΟΙΓΜΑ ΠΙΕΣΑΤΕ ΤΟ ΣΗΜΕΙΟΝ ΑΥΤΟ"), indicating its circulation in the Greek market during past decades, likely in the 1950s. In the center, a characteristic little shoeshiner (or brand mascot) is depicted holding a brush and a tin of ELVY polish, set against a backdrop of two stars. The item shows wear and oxidation (rust) due to age, especially on its back section.
