Aeolian Pipe Organ Manuscripts by J. C. Bunge

Yes, here in the Pianola Museum we have four manuscripts by J.C. Bunge
of his arrangements for the Aeolian Pipe Organ.  We found these in his
house in Switzerland where he also had an Aeolian Pipe Organ.  We hope
we can find copies of these rolls:

  1459 Salome (Strauss)
  1460 Symphony 4 (Mahler)
  1461 Salome (Strauss)
  1462 Pelleas & Melisande (Debussy)

Can anyone help us?

Also we would like to find out what happened to the instrument since
it was removed from its location in Meggen (Switzerland), around 1950.
Is it still in existence?
