Year of production: approx. 1898
Serial number: 1926

This is a very beautiful and at that time popular instrument in table construction. The pin rollers each have 10 different pieces of music. There are two rollers for this instrument. It is in very good original condition. The table shape with two small drawers and fine fittings is very attractive. The instrument shows very clearly how the forerunners of the paper music roll produced music mechanically and with a crank. A great instrument!
