Please message me with any questions. Borrowed from an article “Musically Made In New Jersey” by Michele Marinelli (Issue 35 March 2017). It is typically acknowledged that the top three New Jersey manufacturers were The Regina Music Box Company, F. Otto & Sons, and The Aeolian Company, and we certainly devoted an appropriate amount of space for their respective objects. But, there were other lesser. Known companies that were also featured, even if only briefly mentioned, such as the American Music Box Company. In 1894, the American Music Box Company was incorporated and financed through stock offerings, and the Board of Directors selected Emile L. Cuendet as president of the firm. The company began manufacturing music boxes in 1896, first in West New York, then Hoboken, NJ. He was also given exclusive rights to sell Monarch and Triumph music boxes. Unfortunately, the combination of financial difficulties and mismanagementincluding several patent infringement lawsuits brought against them resulted in the demise of the American Music Box Company in 1898; the company was dissolved after only two years. Today, the Monarch and Triumph brand music boxes are difficult to find. > Age- 19th Century; c1890. > Model- R1/B; Rare 19 Note Mechanism (19 metal prongs/teeth). > Made In Germany. > Inside Cylinder has a “4” embossed near the end (look closely at photo 4). > Unique and rare rocker design. > Mechanism works as designed but could use a good cleaning; All parts are original to Mechanism.
