original Holzer-Cabot AC motor.  Needs restoration.  Measures 24-1/4"
long, 17-1/2" to top of spill valve, curved spoke 14-3/4" flywheel.

The following two drums are genuine antique drums, _not_ modern
reproductions:

orchestrion -- Coinola X, Midget Orch. or small band organ.  Needs new
heads.  Measures:  4-3/4" deep and 12" across.  Pictures available via
