Seek Case For An Early Sectional Comb Movement
By Reg Smith

Greetings to all!  I am seeking an empty case for one of the very
small, snuffbox sized cylinder music box movements.  The dimensions
of the brass bedplate are 3-5/8" X 2".  I would like to find a donor,
either the tin type with typical lithographed picture on lid, or
a tortoise shell or composition material type.

This movement plays remarkably well and as an early sectional comb
type, I think it is certainly worthy of a proper case.  If anyone
can help, please let me know.

Thanks!
Reg Smith
