Vintage Antique Columbia Music Box Swiss Made. Pat. 1884. Plays 12 Songs

August 25, 2019vintageantique, columbia, made, music, plays, songs, swiss, vintageadmin

This item is in the condition shown. I didn’t run it long or see if it moved to another song, but it seems to be okay. The lock mechanism is not working and is falling out of it. The male stud doesn’t line up perfectly with the hole either, so I didn’t try to lock it. There are a couple spots in the wood inlay that is missing as shown in the photos. The hand crank is removable. It’s a beautiful piece. I would have added a few more photos, but they only give me 12. Feel free to contact me with any specific questions. Also: I try to include a tape measure in one or more of the photos to show size when relevant, so please make sure you scroll the photos underneath the large one all the way to the right to see them. I consider myself a very reasonable and fair person and try hard to conduct my business with the utmost integrity. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Please remember that vintage watches have survived for many decades by being treated well. Vintage watches are not for wearing while doing yard work, working out, or swimming. Vintage watches cannot keep time like their quartz cousins and will need altering on average between +-2 to +-5 mins per day. They are a little more destructible than modern watches. Vintage watches also require periodic service and cleaning. Every couple of years, they would like their 20,000 mile checkup, oil change, and general service. By taking care of your vintage watch, you will have years of great service, and a quality heirloom to pass to another generation.
