Lucille Ball and Gary Morton gave this large acyrlic storage container to close friends and associates as a Christmas gift. It has three compartments and features a hinged lid that is etched with LOVE, LUCY & GARY. Some say each section held different types of candy or sweets for the holiday season. Once consumed it made a great case to store desk items or anything that needed a little organization.

Lucy & Gary’s Lucite Candy Boxes
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.
