Complete antique velvet-bound album with original brass hardware, beveled mirror, and a working hidden music box. Preserves 42 original family photographs documenting a Scandinavian family from Norway (including Stjørdal and Trondheim) to Superior, Wisconsin, along with an original Scandinavian Christmas greeting card. A remarkable time capsule from the turn of the 20th century. Hidden Music Box: Tucked beneath the album is its original music box - a delightful surprise from another era. It still winds and plays, though slowly, as expected of a mechanism over 100 years old. The original label identifies the melodies as “The Maiden and the Jay” and “My Little Hindoo Belle.” Its gentle music offers a beautiful glimpse into the past, adding an enchanting touch to this preserved family heirloom.
