I am looking for some specific information about cylinder music boxes
with F. Nicole stamped on the comb.  If anyone on the MMD has one, will
you please note the serial number, the cylinder size, and whether
anything is stamped on the bedplate and send the information to me.

It has been a while since we have had any music box strings going.  Are
all our music box readers coasting?

 [ Beatrice, I hope we can get more music box discussions going here.
 [ A couple of our music-box-only subscribers have dropped out recently.
 [ I fear this is because of too little music box activity.

For the information department:  The Christmas items are in the stores,
and one of Mr. Christmas's offerings this year is a nice little box - no
mice -  with the paper roll playing music box mechanism in view. Simple
and nicely done piece. A little early, but that is because time goes by
so fast as I get older, I think!

 [ Dixieline (of all places) has these music boxes in the San Diego
 [ area.  David Wasson showed me one last week and I was quite
 [ impressed.  I'd appreciate it if MMD readers would report
 [ additional sightings of seasonal mechanical music devices!  -- Jody
