Pioneer Toy makers since 1916Copyright 1945 By United Features Syndicate INC. Measues 8 1/4" h 9" wAll characters have there instruments drumsticks etc. I consider this item to be in great physical condition and great working condition.  I would say excellent about the working part but if Grandpa is not attached properly he holds up the entire band.  This item does have the original key for winding and the on/off switch also works. Oh yeah ~ lets not forget the original box  ~ It comes with it!!!!  But I must say it lost its lid and is discolored and a bit tattered.This item in Mint condition with the box has a book price of over 1200.00.  So for those of you who can't find one in Mint condition here is your chance to own this great toy at a great price in very good condition!Because of the Fragility of this item and its box it is not eligible for combined shipping! If purchasing from outside the US.
