Seek Musical Box of "Miss Potter" Song
By Mark Kinsler

At https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=50&v=0kIb6LeBmMk 
is 30 seconds of the movie "Miss Potter" (Beatrix, in point of fact)
that contains "Let Me Teach You How To Dance", a tune that one of
the parishioners of the clock repair group dearly wants to reproduce
on some sort of music box, or musical box.

I told him about the Sankyo paper strip devices, and he's considering
that (there's a video of someone who tried), but is there anyone like
Sankyo who stamps out cylinders?

 [ This piano version of "When You Taught Me How to Dance" would
 [ be a good model for a music box arrangement:
