what a nice hubby you have...i found a rebuilt one not exactly like this totally rebuilt i just dont know if i want it. thanks for showing this one its beautiful

just like the other person said in the post they still work even now... they back then made work of art not just assemble room dolls.

@adam198315 I would love to see yours. I make automatons as well so I'd know a rebuilt one if I saw one. Regardless, I'd love to see. ARe you selling it?

I would guess her value to be in the 3 to 4k range. She was an anniversary gift from my hubbs. She didn't work very well when I recieved her but with a little tinkering she now works perfectly. These toys were built to last.
