Description

1935? Two French cardboard chocolate boxes. 7” x 3⅜” picturing “Two Doves”; WL; MM; FC; and TMCM. 5” x 3⅞” featuring two mice opening a box of chocolate mice! Heavy cardboard. “Made in France.” $10 from chad555, Pottstown, PA, on Ebay, Dec., ’20.

What a lovely find! The covers feature simple, charming multicolored scenes. This little pair of treasures comes from the parent of a student at a fellow Jesuit University, the University of San Francisco. And what about these mice – town and country? – who find themselves offered chocolate mice?!
