Polyphon Gloriosa Musical Christmas Tree Stand
By Mark Buckland

Dear MMD,  I have acquired a Gloriosa disc playing musical box.  It
is fitted with a Polyphon mechanism that plays discs with a serrated
edge in the 7000 series.  The diameter is 7-11/16 inches [19.5 cm];
unfortunately there are no discs with it.  Does anyone have some
available?  It may be possible for Renaissance discs in the UK to make
copies if any are available for loan.

On a similar topic, the stand is missing its cast iron Christmas tree
holder which I would like to purchase if anyone has one for sale.

Kind regards,
Mark Buckland
