  Restored, very nice 78 tooth 6 tune music box plays beautifully -- original tune sheet. All operations are as intended. The case is in excellent condition with a beautiful and fully intact geometric inlay design. The comb has one broken tooth (last treble tooth) and 8 missing tips though it's hardly noticable as all 6 tunes play well. The cylinder is missing a couple of easily replaced pins. The base note tuning lead shows gamme #549 and the name Cuendet. The tune card style was used by agent John Manger & Co. who was an importer of music boxes by Cuendet (among others). A lovely piece, with comb work to be done when you (or I) find the time. 17" x 8" x 5-1/4", Weight ~ 15 lbs.
