writes:

In the USA MBSI and AMICA members frequently get together for rallies
which include all manner of monkey organs.

If Mark is close enough to Massachussets (or if anyone else is nearby),
I will be at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, MA,
from September 18 through October 4, 1998, with my 81 key Wilhelm Bruder
Sohne fair organ AND my hand cranked 31/84 Raffin monkey organ. Please
say hello if you come by. We are located right at gate 4. In addition,
Circus World Museum will have their historic circus music display at
the fair which includes the Royal American Shows 89 key Gavioli.
10 bucks to get in and all the shows are FREE.
