Cylinder plays 6 Aires (songs) as listed in the 4th image, inlayed case with a self contained crank mechanism Swiss movement featuring a (change - repeat) function which allows the cylinder to stay in one position and play the same song or shift and play the next song. The (stop-play) lever does not work. so to make the box stop or go one only has to touch the governor fan. The case has some wear and the third screw of the comb is missing, otherwise the comb is in excellent shape with no missing teeth. The crank mechanism and movement are in excellent working order. The piece actually come with the original glass dust guard which goes over the movement. Although we removed it for the purposes of clear photography without glare, it easily slips back into place. The Swiss are known having the highest quality movements hence producing some of the finest music boxes in the world. This piece is no exception and would make an interesting conversation piece addition to any fine collection or household. ****NOTE: Email for more and larger images. ****NOTE: Email us to schedule listening to this piece over the phone.
