'Collectors' in May - Music Boxes and more

The theme for this month was music boxes and we had several examples.  One was based on a Normal Rockwell painting and another resembled a Russian building and played a Russian tune.  A Shelley vase and Wedgewood items – one from the 1880s – caused much discussion. One of our group had recently returned from an overseas holiday and brought along several blue and white items purchased in England, Holland and Germany.  Royal Doulton featured as well as collections of smaller items.  A recently purchased 20 inch OK Kador doll, made in Hong Kong during the 1950s or 60s, was also displayed.
