FS: Old Music Box Discs in Cuero, Texas
By Rebecca Ann Jordan

-- forwarded message, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hello,  I found your web site and thought I would let someone know.
I was in Cuero, Texas over the weekend and found some large, rusted
music box disks in the basement of an antique shop.  I didn't know that
there are various "large" sizes, so I didn't measure them, so I can't
tell you the size.  Is there someone who might be interested in
rescuing these disks?

I could not see any printing or etching or something on the one
I picked up, and some of the tracking teeth on the outside edge were
missing.  In other words, pretty old and pretty rusty.  I know that
you can not tell me the value of these things; I am just looking for
someone to tell so they might find a good home.

Thanks for any information or other contact(s) you can provide.  I also
get these strange kind of e-mails.  You see, I am into antiques, also.
Hubby and I own a 74 year old car, a 1928 Model A Ford.

If you end up posting this message on the 'net or some forum, I would
prefer that you do not publish my email address.  You may use this
"contact me" page: http://home.austin.rr.com/rajordan/rajordan.html
