 MODEL AND
DISC CABINET
 A beauty in both sight and sound,
Porter's Baroque Music Box features an inlay design of the early classic
style. Musical instruments embellish the lid, front and side panels.
Unlike more modern and simple styles, classic early inlay features
painstaking and delicate hand decorating. Each inlay design is
registered and copyrighted exclusively by Porter Music Box Company, Inc.
Every Baroque instrument contains
two of Porter's own combs, each with 76 teeth that play the richest,
fullest music imaginable from an instrument this size. The complete,
spring-wound clockworks which drive a 15 1/2" copper-plated disc
are also manufactured in our shop to the strictest standards. A gentle
winding will provide 20 minutes of uninterrupted music, showcasing five
octaves and a dazzling harmonic range. The convenience of an optional
electric motor is often preferred to hand winding.
Production of the Limited Series
will be suspended after 150 instruments are created. Each will be
labeled with a certified serial number.
