Little nuggets of treasure from the art world's Fort Knox.

 

On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me: Six nesting envelopes, FIVE RAUCOUS MUSICIANS … four flopping fish, three stacked sheep, two Tarzans, and a peacock in a pine tree. Abril Lamarque Christmas card to unidentified recipient, 1930 Dec. Abril Lamarque papers, Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution.
