Tiffany "Flower Girl" Musical Automaton Is Fake
By David Smith

The Brooke Bond cards were printed in Reading, England, at the Berkshire
Printing Co.  My brother started his working life at the company and
always bought home two or three sets of the new cards for me, some of
which I still have.  They were distributed one or two at a time in
packets of 'PG Tips' tea.

I never guessed that his early work and my interest in Mechanical Music
would ever come together!
