Gavioli 26-note Cylinder Celeste Reed Organ
By Jim Quashnock

[ Ref. Gérard Dabonot in 25.11.23 MMDigest ]

Hello Gérard, I have a similar, but much earlier, Gavioli reed organ
(s/n 5720). I'm not sure if my picture will help as it looks like
your indexing slide is above the barrel index pin and mine is below.
I'm just guessing this from looking at the screw holes.

Regards,
