Seek Photos of Symphonion Manivelle
By Craig Smith

Hi Folks,  I have a small Symphonion music box that has a damaged decal
on the top.  The box is a manivelle (hand cranked without a spring) and
the disks are 5-3/4 inch diameter (14.5cm).  The box is black and it is
about 6-3/4" square and about 3-1/2" high.

The star-wheels are set at a 45 degree angle near the front right
corner of the box with the little crank projecting through a small hole
in the top so you can play it with the cover closed.  Unfortunately,
the colorful decal is mostly missing.  Would any of you happen to have
a similar box with a decal that is intact, or at least 95% there?

If someone can send me a high resolution scan I can make a new decal.
I can even touch it up a little if necessary.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
