Red celluloid embossed cover with painted gold leaves and petals. Album measures 11 x 9 x 3 1/2 inches. Red and black felt binding with working spring loaded clasp. Sits on red paper covered wood box with metal corners. Celluloid has two very small chips at corners. Interior of album appears new. Contains 23 cabinet cards of women and babies. One photo window is uncut hence no photo. Photos slip into the windows via a pre-cut slit below the window. Photo studio locations include Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Nebraska, Massachusetts, New York, Michigan and Iowa. Album is apparently refurbished. We inserted the selection of cabinet cards.Nice somewhat common selection of cabinet card of women and children. The star of the album is the music box which includes three tunes: Creole Ballad, Ragtime March and Country Girl. Likely created for the United States market, the music box was manufactured in Switzerland. More sophisticated music box photo albums would begin playing upon opening the album. This one plays upon winding the key on back. In good working condition and a wonderful example of an album suited perfectly for the parlor in early 20th century America.
