Painted landscapes in curly vignettes are on the narrow sides of high socle, flower bouquets are depicted on the wide sides. Painted riverscape in curly vignette featuring a family of swans in the foreground is on the case front side. Tape drive mechanism (spool box) and reading device are on the case upper side. Tape drive mechanism consists of two rubberized barrels with paper music roll between them, and fluted metal rod that clamps the tape against the sensory levers. Eighteen reading sensory levers control the opening of the valves of thirty-six slotted reeds, which are the source of musical sounds.
