See the Web Sites, Hear the Sounds
By John Kleinbauer

Hi All,  I got a quick note from Hauke Marxsen about the 
Deutsches Museum on-line web site.  He said to use for English :

    http://www.deutsches-museum.de/e_inhalt.htm

Thanks Hauke!

Today I went back to the search engine Hotbot with the words
"Roller Organ".  I found these words last week in MMD.  I was shocked,
to say the least, to find a small crank-powered reed organ.  The organ
uses a cob instead of a barrel.  The design is very similar to the
barrel organ I designed and built.  For more info please check out

Site Number One: Todd Augsburger's Roller Organ Page.  Nice pictures
and good illustrations.

Site Number Two: Scott Currier's Mechanical Music Menagerie also has
a Gem Roller Organ Page.  Nice large clear pictures!

Site Number Three: I now change my search words to "Monkey Organ" with
Hotbot and I find Ragtime Automated Music.  There you will find a large
orchestrion for sale  for a mere  $69,950.  There is a nice large
inside view of the orchestrion.  And for you MIDI fans there are some
nice large sound files of the unit.

I saw the sites, they didn't see me --
If I get too wise, they will edit me!
