Mortier Organ "Taj Mahal" in Australia
By Hauke Marxsen

Hello All,  I read about the "Taj Mahal" in the MMD 990413.  My wife,
Mechthild, and I visited Sydney (Australia) last year in February or
March.

We met Craig Robson in Sydney in an old restaurant.  He is the owner
of a museum for mechanical music instruments.  He told us that he
bought the "Taj Mahal".  It was already in Sydney last year.

We asked him to visit the museum, but it was not possible, because the
museum was being renovated.  All the instruments were packed in or
covered with something.  By now the museum should be open again with
the "Taj Mahal" as a highlight.

  Craig Robson's Service City Collection of Antique Mechanical Music
  338 Botany Rd, Alexandria, (Sydney) N.S.W. 2015,
  Tel.: +61 (0)2 9584 2353

Regards from Hauke Marxsen (Germany)
