I found this delightful tin box at an antique show in Reims, in the Champagne region of France. Circa 1920's, children used a box like this one to take their "gouter" or snack, to school. On the top there is an adorable image of a cat & a child running from a mischievous dog, and a small mouse appears on the side. Other than minor paint touch-ups to the child's leg (see photos) this box is in good shape. It measures approx 7" long x 3-1/2" wide x 2-3/4" high (5-1/2" to top of handle).

This delightful wooden box contains 24 six-sided alphabet cubes with letters, numbers & adorable pictures with French vocabulary words. Circa 1920's-30's, there is an artist's mark on the cover: J Roux. This set is in good to fair condition - the wooden box has seen better days, the clasp is missing & the decoration has worn off some of the blocks but nothing to detract from the charm of this educational toy. Box measures 11" x 7-3/4"x 2". Cubes measure 1-1/2".

This adorable wooden pull-toy circa 1930's features two painted wood elephants playing ball over a fence. Their trucks lift up & down when a lever underneath moves - unfortunately just pulling the toy does not make them move anymore. Normal wear from age & use, the striped celluloid ball between them is cracked has a hole on one side. Still quite a charmer! Measures approx. 15" long x 5" wide x 8" tall.

This beautiful footed plate or "compotier" is in wonderful shape. The design is a bird on a branch with grapes or berries, the blue color is vibrant, there are no chips or cracks. There is some browning from age and there are two very tiny rough spots along the rim which appear to be manufacturing flaws. Measures approximately 8-1/2 inches across & stands 2 inches high. Marked on the bottom, "Terre de Fer, P. Dauphin, 34, Rue de Sevres, Paris." A very charming serving piece!

This adorable stuffed donkey has the softest mohair fur & a very goofy face. With articulating arms & legs, vinyl pads on the bottoms of his feet & a red vinyl mouth, he is quite an original. There are a few small areas where fur has been loved off along the seams and one ear is loose, but he is very clean & in overall good shape. I think he may have had another stripe of red yarn along his head, but he is still a cutie...

This is not a reproduction. Measures approximately 15-1/2 inches by 10 inches.
