A Vintage Music Box

I couldn't contain my delight when I saw a vintage Japanese music box which was reminiscent of the one my childhood friend had which I so loved. It had the same little multi-mirror panels and when the ballerina danced, beautiful images appeared behind her. Two of my favourite vintage music box songs were "Somewhere my love" (the theme song from Dr Zhivago) and "Speak Softly Love" (the theme song from the Godfather). This one carries the latter and I was so thrilled when I found it.

Hi there.
Do you have more pictures of the multi-mirrored Japanese music box? I believe I may have found one just like it.
