FS: Reymond Nicole 3-overture Musical Box
By Brian Chesters

There was a musical box by Francois Nicole in an auction here in
the UK.  It played four overtures and was a rigid notation box.
The pre-sale estimate was £300 GBP.  I understand it sold for
£54,000 plus charges.

I have added a recording of my Reymond Nicole 3-overture box on
YouTube at  http://www.youtube.com/user/brianchesters

Sorry for the quality of recording and there is one more tune left.
If anyone would like to pay £54,000 for it (approx. $100,000 USD)
I will accept cash or check.
