Themusicboxman collects music boxes and musical toys from roughly 1945-1990, with an emphasis on Japanese music boxes, but also from many other Asian (excluding mostly China), European and American countries.

We hope that this collection on the Web will function as a kind of Virtual Museum (however incomplete) to show the many ways music boxes and musical toys were made in that period.

The Collection, as of November 2009, consists of approx 4100 Items and new purchases will be added from time to time. The total is divided between 3350 Music Boxes (over 530, approx. 15% of which are Christmas Items), 500 Musical Toys, 190 Music Boxes For Sale and 60 Musical Toys For Sale in 238 total Collections.

Items in the regular collection are NOT for sale. Please check out our Music Boxes for sale and Musical Toys for sale. They are described in detail and with photos from each angle. More Items For Sale will be added.
