Title: Josette's Music Box Packaging
Post by: JosettesMusicBox on May 02, 2006, 01:35:57 PM

Does anyone know why the packaging for these two music boxes is different?  These are both 1970 Reproductions (1996 I believe), but I was wondering if maybe one is a fake???  Please let us know.  Thanks.

They are from two different re-issues that MPI did in the 1990s.  Both are facsimiles, but for the second wave the box art was updated.  The earlier version is the one with the House of Dark Shadows photo, which was issued around 1998.

OK - So, I have this photo of the original box from 1970 and the two above from the 1990's.

Does anyone else have a photo of the Josette's Music Box packaging that is different than any of these? or are these three the only ones?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
