Music Boxes in UK Stolen
By Christopher van Essen

I'm reporting the theft of two of my boxes (in the UK):

A. Nicole Freres 8-air box, approx 1859, Serial number 37919;

B. Small 6-air box with visible bells, maybe Swiss or French -- I have
pictures (uploaded as Music Box B1 and B2, at the links below).

I understand from Alison Biden of the MBSGB that there is a forum or
'alerting' part of the MMD website where thefts can be reported, and
I'd like to make use of that in attempt to trace or recover the stolen
boxes.  They are likely to remain in the UK, I would think.  Any advice
you can give would be most welcome.

Thanks and regards,
Chris van Essen
