Following Kevin McElhone's & Niko Wiegman's lead in compiling a tune
list for this rare, hybrid musical box, I can add a few more titles
from the thirteen original 11" discs that accompany the instrument here
in the Murtogh D. Guinness Collection, located at the Morris Museum,
Morristown, New Jersey, USA:
5032 - The Alsacians, Polka-Mazurka, E. Tedesco
5046 - Gasparone-March, Millocher
5051 - Turkish Patrol, Michaelis
5061 - Monastery Bells, Nocturn, Lefébure-Wély
5062 - Merry War (Nur fur Natur), Strauss
It would be very interesting to know how many of these instruments
survive around the world, in addition to the tune list.
