FS: Musical Box Disc and Piano Rolls Clearance
By Kevin McElhone

I am trying to clear my last 3,000 items of stock in the hope of
retirement in 2023 so I thought I would list the types of discs and
rolls that I have here.

Do ask me for whatever type of music you are looking for by e-mail.
I am in the UK but I send world-wide all the time.

1. Symphonion 5-3/4" (14.5cm), with serrated tooth edge; also plays
on Monopol.

2. Adler / Fortuna 8-1/4" or 21cm centre drive. All have the letter
"B" printed on them.

3. Kalliope 7-5/8" (19.5cm), serrated edge, usually used on the
Christmas Tree Stands.

4. Polyphon 8" (20.6cm), centre drive

5. Polyphon 71G, 9-3/4" (24.6cm), with 6 bells

6. Polyphon 9-1/2" (24.3cm)

8. Orphenion 10" or 25cm

9. Lochmann 11" or 28cm, periphery drive

10. Polyphon 72G, 11" (28cm) with 8 bells

11. Polyphon 11" (28cm), New and original discs made mostly in the UK.
All discs in the 9,000 series were arranged 1980-2010 by Robin Timms and
are in almost new condition.

12. Regina 11" or 28cm

13. Britannia / Imperial 11-3/4" (30cm), periphery / edge drive,

16. Symphonion 13-5/8" (34.5cm), centre drive

17. Monopol 13-5/8" (34.5cm), centre drive, will also play on Symphonion

31. Symphonion 21-1/4" (54cm)
