Seek Drawings of Musical Box Movement
By Paul Butterworth

Hi, I have a 6-airs music box, presumed Victorian.  I am a clock
collector so don't have any knowledge of these wonderful devices.
What I need is a schematic of the movement, or detailed drawings,
as I have the tune selector mechanism missing, then I can manufacture
one myself.  I think it works on moving the main cylinder backwards
and forwards.

Can you help, or do you have any ideas where the information might
be obtained?

Many thanks,
Paul Butterworth, UK
