Yeah... I'd keep my nickel. I think the violin needs a tuning.
Saw something similar in NOLA recently - piano with 3 violins that needed tuning - big bucks.
Would rather keep the 1913 5c.
The nickel would sure be easier to store.

There was one of these on an episode of American Pickers... The owner said it technically was one of the first computers... And that there were probably around 100 remaining... He didn't sell
Successful trades.... MichaelDixon,
Remarkable innovation in that era.
Did you know that Q. David Bowers wrote the book, The Encyclopedia of Automatic Musical Instruments, Vestal Press (1973) ?

Interesting, but terrible music... the violin is way out of tune.... Cheers, RickO
A really good song, a cool invention, but out of tune especially on the high notes.

...and that is the beauty of this machine. If it sounded like Perlman at the Met, the charm would be gone.
You had your shot at my hurdy gurdy. You get no sympathy here.

Our friend/neighbor has some of those... like, a lot.
Then again, he has a train, a carousel, a three story pipe organ in his house.
Quite something being in his house which is now open for tours.

My Type Set & My Complete Proof Nickel Set!
What better than PEACHES to accompany the dulcet tones of a fine anteek hurdy gurdy?
NOW I bet yer sorry.
Geez, I'm glad I tossed that shirt.
Oh wait.... traded it. For a nickel.
It is a very cool automaton but please tune that violin!
