Seek Missing Parts For 25-1/4" Symphonion
By Robin Biggins

I have an upright musical box in my shop that has missing parts, and
I need to find someone who may have one so I can copy them.  It is a
25-1/4" Symphonion that plays the 8,000 series discs with a diametric
comb set up.

The case seems to have been for a coin-op but there is no coin drop
mechanism or any gears or indication that it ever had one.  A simple
stop-start lever has been fitted but there is no mechanism to stop at
the end of tune.  As you can see from the photos, there is a fancy
hinged bar to latch the pressure bar.

Any information would be welcome, particularly if you know of one
I could copy an end of tune device.
