Out of stock

Music Box

Being offered for sale is the REGINA POLYPHON MUSIC BOX (single short comb (damaged, see notes below & 3rd picture), 15.5" disc player, serial number 64884, unknown model type/number) from circa the early 20th century (post-1898 as per serial number and pre-c.1918 as per popularity decline after Edison's phonograph was invented), as seen in the pictures/as described in the title. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR IMPORTANT CONDITION NOTES. Being offered for sale AS-FOUND, uncleaned. May require a thorough detailing and/or professional servicing to bring to its full potential. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED or your money back...no questions asked!

Rough condition. Comb has (18) broken teeth (see 3rd pic). Moderate -to- severe scuffs, scratches, dings, dents, etc. throughout. Box/case remains structurally rigid & strong but many corner joints have damage/are slightly separated. Looks like it was removed from a stand/base and/or is missing molding around bottom. Left, right & rear sides have been painted black. Hinges are good. Crank handle is damaged at connection point and does not grip tight enough to crank the motor. Using vise-grips, we were able to crank the motor and it does work but seems to run a bit slower than it should. It may need a thorough cleaning/greasing/servicing to bring to full working order. Original lock looks to be working but NO key included and has NOT been tested. Out of the (15) discs included, just 1 or 2 look like they might be in fair enough condition to work but the rest are badly worn with missing metal around edges and are heavily rusted (see last pic). All-in-all, a good example for restoration. See pics.

Measures 21-1/2" wide x 19" deep x 10" tall. Uses 15-1/2" discs. Total weight is 62 lbs. 4.0 oz..
