The Spirit of 1776 Reuge patriottische speeldoos VS

It doesn’t get much more patriotic than this! This exceptional music box from the Swiss quality brand Reuge features an image of Spirit of ’76, an iconic scene closely associated with the American War of Independence and the Declaration of Independence of 1776. Inside, there is plenty to discover as well. Once the box is opened, a large mechanical musical movement appears. With the sliding knob on the front, the mechanism can be activated, bringing the music to life. The cylinder bears well-known American melodies from the era of the American Revolution. As such, this music box is not only a special collectible for enthusiasts of mechanical musical instruments, but also a striking piece for collectors of American memorabilia and historical curios.
