Disney CAPTAIN NEMO'S PIPE ORGAN from 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA 2004 DAMAGED

Description: This limited edition Disney Captain Nemo's Pipe Organ from the movie 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a must-have for any Disneyana collector. Made in China in 2004, this piece features intricate details of the famous pipe organ Captain Nemo would play in the Nautilus. It comes in its original box with a Certificate of Authenticity and background. A limited edition of only 1000 made. NOTE ABOUT THE CONDITION: While the organ itself looks great, and the music box still plays the music, there are some issues. It was knocked off a table, and suffered a few knocks and bumps on the base. But the most noticeable piece of damage is on the back, where a piece broke off and I have no idea where it went. The bumps can probably be fixed with some kind of putty and/or a black Sharpie. And some clever crafty person could figure out how to fix the back. (Or, if it isn't seen, don't bother with it. The front still looks amazing.) As I said, the music still plays when you turn the key on the bottom. Though it does feel a bit loose, and could probably use a tightening. Here is a little about the piece from the COA that is included with the organ: The Walt Disney Gallery is proud to present this 1/2-inch scale replica of Captain Nemo's magnificent pipe organ as designed for Walt Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Disney Artists Kevin Kidney and Vladimir Petrov have constructed the model with painstaking attention to detail -- down to the filigreed mirror and the forty-one hand-applied organ stops! The console at the Haunted Mansion was photographed from every angle and carefully copied in miniature, as was the original organ bench. Cast in metal and displayed on a wooden base, this very special figurine commemorates the 50th Anniversary of Disney's landmark film. A hidden music box within the base plays the haunting strains of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor. Here's a little info I found on 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea from Wikipedia: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a 1954 American science fiction adventure film directed by Richard Fleischer, from a screenplay by Earl Felton. Adapted from Jules Verne's 1870 novel of the same name, the film was produced by Walt Disney Productions. It stars Kirk Douglas, James Mason, Paul Lukas, and Peter Lorre. Photographed in Technicolor, the film was one of the first feature-length motion pictures to be filmed in CinemaScope. It was also the first feature-length Disney film to be distributed by Buena Vista Distribution. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was a critical and commercial success, being especially remembered for the fight with a giant squid, as well as Mason's definitive performance as the charismatic anti-hero Captain Nemo. The film won two Academy Awards for its art direction and special effects. It is considered an early precursor of the stea
