SOLD: Lochmann Musikwerke produced many tens of thousands of these wonderful-sounding Symphonion Musikwerke in the period from around 1892-1904. It was sometimes the only source of such melodious music in wealthy homes - long before shellac records and radio. The instrument with double comb is in very good original condition and still plays very attractively. It was sold by the Munich music store J. B. Westermair. Our Hupfeld electric piano from around 1899 also comes from the same music store.
