Music Box Video
By Nancy Fratti
Hauke Marxsen inquired about current video's relating to music boxes. To my knowledge there are only a few videos:
1. MUSIC IN TIME, made by the Musical Box Society Int'l. A walk through the exhibit put on by the MBSI at the National Assoc. of Watch & Clock Collectors. The exhibit was there 1990-91 and had about 60 boxes in it. Video narrated by myself and John Metcalf, who was then in charge of restorations.
2. REUGE Music boxes put out a video version of their book "The Wonderland of Music Boxes & Automata". A look at modern day musical box industry and visit to Michel Bertrand's automata workshop.
3. AUTOMATA, Mechanical Marvels of the 20th Century -- made by Christian Bailly, narrated by Dick Cavet. Strictly automata.
4. AUTOMATA -- put out for a short time by, I believe, the Museum of Automata in York, England.
There are numerous videos of the Band Organ Rallies. I can't think of any other videos. I would be happy to supply more info if necessary!
