Seek Crank Organ as Anniversary Gift
By Joyce Brite

A friend of mine is interested in purchasing a small, crank-operated
organ as a wedding anniversary gift for her husband.  The gift is
intended as a surprise and it would be the first mechanical music
machine for her husband.  He was quite fascinated by a street organ that
he saw at a festival last year and has expressed interest in owning one.
The couple are very much novices to the mechanical music world and the
wife has asked for my help in this matter.

The couple has limited income so price is a concern.  We are hoping to
find one for around $2,000 which may present some difficulty.  The organ
can be either book, roll or MIDI-played.

If you have a crank organ that fits these specifications and is in
working order, please email me and I will forward the information.
Since the organ is to be a surprise, it is not practical to call the
prospective buyer at home to discuss the matter at this time.

Thank you for your assistance.
