This is one of the earliest Hupfeld Vorsetzers from Leipzig - with the serial number 2168. It has a beautiful music box in bird's eye maple. It probably dates from around 1903 and is therefore one of the first variants of this successful model. The Vorsetzer is in very good condition and will be wonderfully playable again after renovation.
