Calliope Blower Needed
By Lamar Boulet

I have located a calliope which operates on air instead of steam.  I
used to play this calliope in parades here in South Louisiana for a
bread company which owned it.  It was a great hit since I played only
Cajun music during the parade.

This calliope is to be placed in a local museum.  I would like to get it
playing again, which I have done a couple of times in the past.  Does
anyone know what the wind pressure should be?  I know the compressor
which was used before made more noise than the calliope.
