Perfection Music Box Company of New Jersey
By Christopher Shaw

Hi,  I just came into possession of a "Perfection" 14-inch music box.
Does anyone know anything about this company:

  The Perfection Music Box Co.
  Newark, New Jersey

I have found a few sparse mentions they were based in Hoboken or Newark
New Jersey, nineteenth century, but is there anything more?  It came
with ten disks; I like its sound.

 [ Possibly related are "Perfection" music rolls, made or sold by the
 [ Perforated Music Roll Co. which Frank Himpsl believes was somehow
 [ associated with Standard Music Roll Co. of Orange, New Jersey.
