FS: Thorens Music Box and Roll-playing Saxophone
By Larry Lobel

Cruising the Sebastopol antique shops today I saw a toy saxophone with
six or seven rolls, all in good playing condition.  The sax is about one
foot long and the rolls about four inches.  They're asking $125 for it.

The same shop had a Thorens music box in playing condition that plays
disks about four inches in diameter, and has a few disks with it.
For this they want $395.

I found these both very charming but out of my budget range.  If anyone
is interested, they are at the Antiques Society on Gravenstein Highway,
a couple of miles east of town.
