    This was my momma's Music Box which was a gift from her mother for her 18th birthday.
    From when I was quite young I recall sneaking into her bedroom whilst she was outside hanging the washing, to open and watch and listen in wonderous enthrallment
    You can't see from these still shots, but the couple spin around this way and that randomly, cand their little legs quiver & move along with the music. So delicate, looks like romance
    Of course I was repeatedly in trouble for doing so but I continued despite the smacks, for the sheer enjoyment.
    Hence, my mother specified to leave it to me after she left this world.

      I can just imagine your delight in seeing the sweet dancers and hearing the music. I hope you can continue to pass it down in the family.
