Below there is a video of it in action. NOTE: I did not wind it up all the way as I was being cautious -so it runs a bit slow in video. Neat to see, heh?!

Fantastic 1880s Cylinder Music Box
Recently, we had this wonderful antique (ca 1880) cylinder music box by Mackie & Co at one of our sales. It features 1 Drum and 6 Bells. Check out the lovely enameled butterflies as well! This item brought people in from all over the midwest. It was estimated to sell for $1,800 to $2,400. It sold for $3,000!
