Nicole Freres Grand Format
By Brian Chesters

Hi again,  I recently bought at auction here in the UK, a Nicole Freres
Grand Format overture box, the number of which is 32025.  I notice that
a similar box was sold by Christies in London on the 5th December 1991
which was numbered 32027.

My question is, was the production of musical boxes done in batches or
individually as the orders came in?  What would the date of manufacture
be for these two boxes and does anyone have any information on the
surrounding serial numbers? (32024, 32026 & 32028)
