1900, SWISS: A very nice original coin operated railway station box with 42cm (16 - 1/2") cylinder playing eight tunes. Four dancers and a mechanical cobbler picture mounted in the back. The cobbler three-dimensional picture is not believed to be original to the station box, but is connected with linkage to the music box and operates as the music plays and the dancers dance. CONSIDERATIONS: The case is in very good condition showing light wear and minimal scuffs to the finish. The music box plays correctly with a coin and is of Swiss manufacture. The dolls dance, have new clothes, and the mechanical picture in the back works well with the music box. A great example of a late 19th century Swiss station box.
This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made.Condition: (Excellent).
