Seek Symphonion Music Box Escapement Mechanism
By David Crosby

I have recently purchased a double comb Symphonion Music Box that plays
18-inch disks.  The escapement mechanism that stops the disk after one
play is missing.  I would like to fabricate a replacement but need at
least a photo to work from.  Can anyone suggest where I could find a
photo of an intact mechanism?
