Value of Long Play Cylinder Musical Box
By Bill

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

Can someone give me a idea of what the value of a long play cylinder
music box with four spring barrels is?  I can't see a maker's name
anywhere to identify it.  It has a cylinder approximately 13 inches
long and all the pins are fine.  The comb has had one tooth replaced
and 13 tips replaced, which is hard to see unless you look close.

When fully wound via a lever, it says it will play a full 45 minutes
as well, and it also has a tune card with Swiss I.D. marks on it.
The case is about 34" long x 8" wide with very detailed handles.
