Invitation to Join Musical Box Society of G.B.
By Kevin McElhone

We would welcome new members and would like to invite readers of MMD
to join us.  Many of our members also subscribe and contribute to MMD
but enjoy the benefit of being a part of both communities.

The yearly membership fee, due after 1st January, is

  £24 for UK addresses
  £24 or 40 Euros for Europe
  £32 or $55 for USA, Far East, Australia, New Zealand.

Benefits include four quality magazines a year available only on
subscription.

There are usually two regional weekend meetings a year held in Hotels
with speakers & visits to local collections.

Although 2005 sees a Spring regional meeting in Derbyshire, as usual
there is an International joint meeting with the Musical Box Society
International (M.B.S.I.) in Surrey in August.

The Annual General Meeting is always the first Saturday in June,
in the Midlands, and includes a members-only auction.

We have also published "The Tune Sheet Book" and a supplement of
Cylinder Musical Box Tune Sheets, dating charts, over 200 pictures
to help identify the maker of your box.

Our most recent publication was "The Organette Book", 440 pages,
700 pictures, all about indoor automatic reed organs.

There will be another work published in the near future which will
also be a limited collectors edition like the first two books (there
are very limited quantities still available]).

If you would like more details, or a sample copy of our journal do
contact me, the Membership Secretary, or have a look at our web site :
