Pair of Lucite boxes from Lucille Ball and Gary Morton. In the 1980’s, President Ronald Reagan famously had a huge jar of jelly beans on his desk in the Oval Office. Staying on trend Mr. Morton had a similar version, using the “Morton’s Munchies” box filled with hard candies in his office at Lucille Ball Productions. The “Love, Lucy” heart box was given as a Christmas gift to close friends and family.
