Saying they believe it may still be in the Philadelphia area, Lower Merion Township police are asking whoever has the $80,000 Victor Herbert shadow box stolen from a Bryn Mawr home last summer to return it without threat of arrest.
The display box contains the baton and other items belonging to the composer, renowned for his operettas around the turn of the 20th century.
It was stolen Aug. 24, along with a $3 million portrait bust of Benjamin Franklin, from a home in the 600 block of Black Rock Road, allegedly by a housekeeper.
