Seek Blower For Large Street Organ
By John G. Ravert, Sr.

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I am looking for an electric blower to pressurize my 90-key Carl
Frei scale street organ.  The organ runs on 9 inches of wind pressure.
I don't know the volume of air flow that must be maintained.  There
are about 350+ pipes if that would be an indicator.  Does anyone know
where I might find a blower of this size?  Thanks!
