THE BEATLES FRANKLIN MINT MUSIC BOX,"A HARD DAY'S NIGHT " INSIDES ONLY! WORKING!

Description

HERE I AM OFFERING A PART OF ONE (1) OF A SERIES OF TWELVE (12) MUSIC BOXES FROM THE FRANKLIN MINT FEATURING THE BEATLES! THIS WOULD BE GREAT FOR SOMEONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR THE MUSIC BOX MECHANISM ITSELF, WITH KEY AND ORIGINAL FELT ENCLOSURE TO COMPLETE OR IMPROVE UPON THEIR OWN ITEM/COLLECTION!
I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF MY MORE UNUSUAL ONE-OF-A-KIND ITEMS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY.
THIS MUSIC BOX BASE IS FROM 1992 AND THESE WERE OFFERED BY THE FRANKLIN MINT. THESE ARE/WERE THE ONLY AUTHORIZED BEATLES MUSIC BOX COLLECTION OF 12 ITEMS. IN 1997, THE FRANKLIN MINT OFFERED A SERIES OF CRYSTAL DOME MUSIC BOXES, BUT, LIMITED THESE TO A SERIES OF 6.
THIS LIMITED EDITION MUSIC BOX WAS MADE ON A VERY STRICT CALENDAR OF 45 DAYS. AFTER THE 45TH DAY, THEY MOVED ON TO THE NEXT BEATLES MUSIC BOX AND DESTROYED THE PLATES AND DIES ONCE THE FIRING DAYS WERE UP. THESE MUSIC BOXES ARE HAND CRAFTED IN FINE PORCELAIN, HAND DECORATED WITH ORIGINAL ART INSPIRED BY BEATLES' ALBUM COVERS AND RIMMED WITH 24 KARAT GOLD. MADE EVEN MORE COLLECTIBLE AS EACH ONE BEAR THE SIGNATURES OF ALL FOUR BEATLES (FACSIMILE THEREOF).
I AM OFFERING HERE JUST THE INTERIOR (OR GUTS) OF "A HARD DAY'S NIGHT",  I HAVE NO CERTIFICATES OF AUTHENTICITY NOR DO I HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOXES. JUST KNOW THIS, THIS "A HARD DAY'S NIGHT" INNER SECTION OF THIS MUSIC BOX IS IN THE EXACT CONDITION THAT IT WAS RECEIVED IN BACK IN 1994! IT IS EXTREMELY CLEAN AND WAS WELL PRESERVED WITH IT'S ORIGINAL CASE! THE BASE WAS USED AS A FLYING SAUCER WHEN ONE OF MY NEPHEWS VISITED ME A WHILE BACK, THIS IS ALL THAT REMAINS OF THIS MUSIC BOX!! UNFORTUNATELY, I DO HAVE SOME OTHER INCOMPLETE FRANKLIN/BEATLES MUSIC BOXES TO LIST AS WELL... THIS WAS NOT A SINGLE UFO SIGHTING MIND YOU, BUT, A BARRAGE OF SIGHTINGS (AND BREAKAGE) WITHIN SECONDS!
WHO KNOWS IF ONE OF YOUR MUSIC BOXES ENDED UP FILLED WITH WATER, OR HAD SURGERY PERFORMED ON IT BY LITTLE HANDS, THIS WOULD BE THE CURE FOR IT'S SICKNESS!
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY PICTURES AS THEY DO A GOOD JOB SHOWING ALL OF THE DETAIL AND ACTUAL CONDITION OF THIS "A HARD DAY'S NIGHT" LIMITED MUSIC BOX'S WIND UP MECHANICAL MUSIC BOX WITH THE KEY AND ORIGINAL FELT INSERT (CUT-OUT).
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA E-BAY MESSAGING AND SUPPLY ME WITH YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS AND I WILL DO THE REST!
