Subject: Music Box Elements

I wondered if I might you ask a question in order to narrow my search a
bit.  I am looking to see if there is a company that makes music boxes
that play Civil War tunes (i.e. Johnny Comes Marching Home, Dixie,
etc.).

As a hobby, I paint miniature soldiers and would like to look into
making a custom music boxes as a gift item.  So, I am really just
hoping to locate the mechanism that plays the song.  If I could find
such a thing, I'd probably create a custom box for the device and mount
the figures on top.

If you have any information on this, I would be most appreciative.

Thank You.
