The NAPOLEON gramophone company of Japan made both players and needles. The Napoleon brand of needles ran for many years and there are many different versions of this famous tin. This one is one of the most vibrant designs you will see on a needle tin. The detail for such a small print area is amazing. In our experience it is one the most difficult to find and one of the most attractive. This one has some minor scratches to the lid which is reflected in the lower than usual sale price.  In presents very well in person and the scratches are not so noticeable without magnification.  See our shop for some other great Napoleon tins and see our Collection Gallery to see some of the other Napoleon variants that were made.
