Unusual Ducommon-Giraud Musical Box
By Michael Woolf 

Noting Brian Chesters comments about the box with two spring and governor
assemblies -- I have a Ducommon-Giraud organ box with the organ notes at
the bass end of the cylinder: but other than that it's a conventional box
with only one governor, placed where you'd expect to see it.  Looks like
they made a variety of styles.
