Sunday June 9th at the Berlin Zoo.
You can see the roll of paper with the holes on it that makes the specific notes play, as it is cranked through the instrument.

That is so cool. Reminds me of old old movies.
Definitely
I would love to see one of these in ‘real life’ as my kids would say 🙂
It was an amazing sound.
Wow, didn’t realize they were still around!
Me either but then I saw another one today near the market place.
I have not heard a ‘Leierkastenmann’ for a very long time. Thanks for the treat, Ruth!
Thank you very much, Peter. I’m glad it’s a good memory.
Ruth this really brings to mind the busy streets of Italy and the sound precursor to the USA’s talkie films. Beautiful.
Yes, it’s an old fashioned sound for sure.
❤😎
Very cool! I love the Berlin Zoo!
Thanks Kristin
Are these two folks married?
What a cool experience!
I didn’t even think to ask. Good question though, Stef
