Large PIANO Gramophone Needle Tin (1000 size) Short Dress Version

Scarce 1000 size PIANO brand gramophone needle tin. These tins came in 1000 and 2000 size. The 1000 has the pianist in a short dress and the 2000 has a long dress. The tins originally had either 5 or 10 triangle tins (200 size) in them so there are fewer of these to be found than the already scarce triangle tins (see the one already in my shop). These tins are one of the most attractive of the larger Japanese tins and really add something special to a needle tin collection. The tin is in very nice condition as can be seen in the photographs. 

We like you to know exactly what you are buying. We try to sell only the best examples of any tins we can find but these tins are 50-100 years old and do all have unique markings and some blemishes. We take the best quality pictures for you that we can and with the magnifier you can see exactly what you are buying, front, back and inside. So these pictures form part of the item description so please examine them carefully and note our refund policy before you make your purchase.
