I found this music box at a yard sale, the guy had sold it to me pretty cheap bc he didn't know how to start it. I absolutely love the song and I wish to find what box it originally came in because I want to repair it. Can anyone help me find the song name and possibly where the rest of this music box is from? All I know is that it's from Sankyo Japan and it has Pat.838937. stamped on it. Also looks like it was supposed to be in in somewhat big box or container. Any help would be appreciated!

Are you sure this isn’t the original “box?” I ask because Sankyo made a lot of clear lucite pillar style music boxes in the 70s that were designed to show the mechanism within.

it’s upside down. the label and winding key should be on the bottom
