Phil,
The music imprinted on the Regina disk looks like a saucer used for sled
riding on snow. One disk contains one song. Very similar in theory to a
pneumatic player roll..one roll for song and the respective holes punched
out in the paper determine what notes are played. The Regina disk has raised
chads which determine what note/s are played.
The Regina, and I'm not anything close to being versed at the accurately
describing the mechanism, appears to use a series of bells/
chimes/glockenspiels for it's means to create music.  It's a very impressive
sound. Apparently these are extremely rare to find, even more rare to find
one in good working order.
