FS: Two-songs-per-turn Music Box
By Brian Chesters

For sale:  Antique cylinder musical box.  Plays 12 airs at two per turn
on a fat cylinder (9.25 X 3.25 inches).  Key wound,  c. 1850.  Maker
unknown, but numbered on the smooth brass bed plate is 3339.

This is quite early for a 2-per-turn box.  Needs some work including a
re-pin, dampers, one tooth, and a small amount of inlay on the lid to
be replaced.  No tune sheet.

Price is 1200 GB pounds, to include packing and post to anywhere.
