Reasonable? Not even close in my opinion.

The tin picture on Jon's site is rectangular and pre-ATC formation in 1890. It clearly held a card as labeled.

The round pails are post-ATC formation as noted by the word "successor". I have found a few that have sold on eBay in the last two years averaging ~$180. Given the condition of the one you pictured, I think the antique shop would be lucky to get $100.

One of the eBay sold round pails was from Factory 3 First District of IL. Not sure if any tobacco cards came out of IL post-ATC formation.
