For your consideration an antique New Amercian Music Box cob organ. Fresh from a local estate. The cob organ is made of wood. It is missing a board on the left side and has had some repairs. The top is marked NEW AMERICAN MUSIC BOX The underside has its original directions. It has a date of May 31, 1887 on the bottom. It comes with one 6 1/4" cob. The bellows look to have been rebuilt at one time and still have good pressure. The cob cranks over. The arm that attaches to the crank to operate the bellows is missing a piece and not connected. I cannot test the sound. I pumped the bellows by hand while cranking the cob and did get some sound out of the piece. It measures overall 14 1/2" in width by 15" in depth counting the crank handle by 8" in height. I am sure you collectors out there could have this one working like new in no time at all. An excellent addition to any antique collection or if you just want to own a reallly neat old music box. I am selling this item with no reserve.
