Retro holiday souvenir - wind-up musical stringed instrument

Price £20.00

Curiously charming hand painted mini mandolin-style instrument with wind-up musical mechanism that plays the song, Never on a Sunday. Probably dating from the early 1960s, this is a piece of retro tourist memorabilia and looks rather like the Greek instrument called a Sazi. Measures 30 x 9 x 6 cm. Very good vintage condition.

This would make the perfect gift for a collector of kitsch holiday souvenirs - or a unique present for a music lover, or fan of Greek music and culture. Once you wind it up, the tune goes on for ages, getting slower and slower until it finally stops. Something to help you, or your children, to nod off at night, perhaps?
