For subscribers who like very early music boxes: They don't come much
earlier than this one on eBay.  Its a fusee-wound clock base with teeth
in twos and base to the right.  Needs restoration, but it ought to be
in a museum glass case.  This one turned up in Holland.

I will let you know the final selling price (if there is one).
