Seek Replacement Comb for Musical Box
By Thomas Vance

Hello -- A good customer has brought in a music box in need of
a replacement comb.  There does not appear to be a manufacturer's
identification.  The label on the inside top of the box is shown at
http://www.got-clocks.com/images/musicbox02.jpg

On the bottom of the frame is "CPC" over the digit "4".  The comb
is approximately 272 mm long, 48 mm wide and 2.5 mm thick.  The teeth
are about 3.5 mm center to center.  There are 77 teeth.  A picture
is at http://www.got-clocks.com/images/musicbox89.jpg

I am in dire need of help in locating an appropriate replacement
for the broken comb.  Can anyone help?  Also, can someone provide
assistance in identifying and dating the machine?  Any help will be
music to my ears!

Best regards,

Tom Vance
