Barrel Organ by K. Giehs Sohn, Altkirch, Alsace
By Francoise Dussour
Who can help me ? I have seen a barrel street-organ,
made between 1870 an 1914, by
Karl GIEHS Sohn - Orgelbauer
ALTKIRCH Obere Elsass ( Haute Alsace - Upper Alsace)
On another paper was a picture with a fair-organ. He writes:
Organs and Piano-Orchestrions maker for Merry-go-rounds,
Cinemas, Restaurants and Dance-halls. He can restore Organs,
Orchestrions and Harmoniums.
Best regards from Mirecourt and best wishes for the year 2001
and the new millenary!

[ I believe Altkirch lies 20 km south of Mulhouse, not very far
