Text from the dustjacket of the First Edition is as follows:

"Following the success of his first book The Cylinder Musical Box Handbook, described by the Bulletin of the Musical Box Society International as 'the most complete and the best that has ever been published on the repair of the musical box', Graham Webb has now written a companion volume on the disc musical box.

Like its predecessor, the aim of this handbook is to equip the musical box enthusiast with the knowledge of his subject which will not only guide him in the work of cleaning and repairing, but which will help him to buy wisely in the first place. Graham Webb describes the working of a disc box, and gives advice on what to look for when choosing one. He discusses the historical development and decline, rare types of disc boxes, and lists the principal manufacturers and agents, with a fuller history of the 'big three'— Polyphon, Regina and Symphonion. He then describes step by step the procedure for dismantling and cleaning the disc movement, restoring a damaged case, repairing discs, replacing broken teeth and lead resonators, renewing dampers, and making a multitude of small adjustments and repairs. He concludes with a list of types of disc boxes, and two unique features — a list of Polypohon tune titles and some tuning scales for Polyphon, Symphonion and Regina combs.

Graham Webb's text is illustrated with thirty-six photographs and Philip Weston's clear and helpful line drawings."
