Fred Zimbalist & Co was from Cleveland Ohio, it imported Thoren Music Boxes from Switzerland and encased them in etched silver and silver plated boxes that they had made in India. The company started in mid 1940’s and was sold in 2013
All of the boxes were handmade and no two were the same.
A similar music box was sold at auction on 3/7/2013 for $1,011.00, this box still played "Take me out to the Ballgame"
