This box arrived with a bunch of random donations inside. I suspect that it will get recycled, but I love the straightforward graphics on this box.
Theater District, Midtown Manhattan
The Music Box Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed shortly after the end of World War I, the Music Box was built by producer Sam Harris to house Irving Berlin's Music Box Revues.
Sam Harris was a legendary Broadway producer, who first reached fame through his successful partnership with George M. Cohan, and then collaborated with Irving Berlin and later with Kaufman and Hart. Irving Berlin is among the greatest and best-known American songwriters of this century. Together they staged Berlin's Music Box Review for the first five years of the 1920s.
C. Howard Crane was a nationally prominent theater architect when Harris and Berlin hired him, along with his associate E. George Kiehler, to design the Music Box. Besides his two Broadway houses (the Music Box and the Guild -- now the Virginia), he designed legitimate theaters and grand movie palaces in cities across the country, and later in England.
The Music Box Theater represents a special and important aspect of the nation's theatrical history. Beyond its historical importance, its facade is an unusually handsome Palladian-inspired design.

Chocolate Cake, covered in chocolate buttercream, with slabs of chocolate for the "box' and hand made chocolates and marshmallows on top. Yep, the birthday girl likes chocolate!

One SB-600 inside the box set to ~1/1
One SB-900 behind a sheet of A3 paper zoomed at 80mm aimed at the cat.
I forgot my umbrella which annoyed me, also, the flap of the box created a shadow on the cat that I hadn't noticed. Easily fixable in post, just small nit-picks.
It was for a school publication, thats why the idea doesn't make that much sense.
The box was originally a tiny shoe-shaped paper mache box that can be frequently found in arts and crafts stores like Michaels or A.C. Moore’s. I covered the box with polymer clay and painted the inside with yellow glitter acrylic paint.

Boxes on top of the wagon during the Budweiser Clydesdales visit to Old Cowtown Museum in Wichita Kansas on May 9, 2010. They came to celebrate the House of Schwan's 50th Anniversary.
Today for school a co-worker (Janie) and I decided to take Rosie's spot. She is VERY territorial over her parking spot. We decided to park sideways and block her from her spot (the middle one).
When she got to work she slammed on her brakes and looked at where we were parked. She ended up taking the Probation Officer's spot, got out of her car and began her walk to the front door. Janie and I stood by my door to watch her come into the front office. She was being very slow about entering the office - little did we know that she went back to her car and decided to try and park next to us. We were able to watch her slip in to the right of Janie's car (the bug) and park in between us. When she got out of the car she turned to us in triumph that she pulled one over on us.
Little did Rosie know that as soon as she walked away, Janie and I ran back to our cars and moved them so that she was boxed in. Rosanne did not find out about this until the principal asked her at lunch why she had taken so many spots and caused Janie & Michael to box her in. She ran to her car and saw what we had done. (She came back and told the principal that she was going to let the air out of our tires . . . until the principal reminded her that she needs us to move before she can leave)
This candy box shaped cake has an edible lid, it hides hand-made chocolates. I designed the rose to look like my husband's favorite t-shirt design from Dom Rebel.

When I see things like this at flea markets I get so upset...
I had a box like this, actually two boxes like this. My Dad sold them at a garage sale... for $10. For both boxes.
I'm still not sure I've forgiven him. I didn't even live at home at the time, I was only visiting and had brought them up for my sister-in-law to read. He sold them without me even knowing. :(
My cats decided to help me photograph some old music boxes.....At least they made things more interesting.

This box was made by Lucia Kleinhans Mathews at The Furniture Shop, a workshop opened by Mathews, her husband, painter Arthur Frank Mathews, and entrepreneur John Zeile Jr. in 1906 following the San Francisco earthquake. The firm produced both handcrafted decorative furniture and decorative arts. The flat composition of conventionalized floral motifs, landscapes, and figures rendered in polychrome and outlined in black is characteristic of their work. This particular box was made as a gift for Lucia Mathew’s brother and sister-in-law. The inscription on the underside, “A poppy for each year,” accompanied by twenty-six poppies and a list of dates, is perhaps a reference to the years of marriage shared by the couple.
