Best Quality Best selection Best Guarantee. SWISS STATION MUSIC BOX. Three Dancing Dolls Three Chinese Mandarin Bell Strikers. As found in the waiting rooms of Swiss railway stations from the 1890’s to 1950’s, these music boxes were entertainment pieces, especially designed to keep the children fascinated and entertained. Their history shows that entrepreneurs such as Henri Vidoudez and Auguste Lasseur constructed these in their St. Croix workshops, using components supplied by the nearby music box makers, and then leased them to the railroad, maintaining their operation and sharing in the proceeds. This particular historical piece was recently restored by the Baud Museum workshop in L’Auberson, Switzerland, known to be the finest music box repair shop of it’s kind and in family ownership for generations. The music box itself, a 9 cylinder interchangeable type made by Mermod Freres, sounds just great It is powered by a double-spring motor, wound out the side by hand crank. The workshop added an activation switch on the side near the crank, so inserting a coin is no longer necessary. However, the coin-op mechanism and coin chute are still intact and in working order. The case measurements are 30 wide x 17 deep x 29 high. There are three dancing dolls, engaged in a nice performance with every tune. These dolls actually pirouette on their feet, fascinating to watch up close. In the rear, striking the bells, are three Chinese Mandarin figures, each tuning their heads from side to side as they accompany the music. Musicaltreasuresofmiami.
