Seek Music Box Repair in Northeast USA
By Tom Brown

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I am in need of repair for two music boxes.  One, I was informed,
needs a new spring as it will not wind.  The second one plays but the
butterfly gear turns sporadically.  Both are cylinder type, circa
mid-1800s, and play multiple songs.

I would appreciate the name of a reputable repair facility in the
Northeast.  I took one to a shop which advertised repair/restoration
and it sat for a year collecting dust before I reclaimed it unrepaired.

I'm seventy years of age and would like to hear them play again before
I depart.  Any assistance you may give will be sincerely appreciated.

Thank you
Tom Brown
