  • "Sur le Pont D'Avignon", Charming Art Deco Box Celebrating Traditional Song
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    Although it has endured many scuffs and indignities, this extremely rare Art Deco box still charms, the figures on its lid playing the violin and dancing to the old children's tune of "Sur le Pont D'Avignon."
