The musical mechanism works perfectly. The figures etc are in decent shape. There are no chips or other notable issues but, as you can see in the pictures it is VERY dusty in the nooks and crannies and will need a through clean. PLEASE NOTE as shown the globe section has a couple of notable issues - firstly there is a bubble within the globe, secondly there are some thread like bits which are floating about inside the bubble. I imagine it's something which has grown in there over the years. Again this is clearly shown in the photos - please check them carefully.
