Hi all,  I can certainly sympathize with Stuart Smolkin's loss [090902
MMDigest].  It makes me think twice about "special" insurance riders or
coverage for individual items such as orchestrions.

There are several nice videos of Weber Unika orchestrions on YouTube:

(I hope I've got that right.)

The music arrangers for Weber were really superb and I can see why
Stuart would like to hear the music again.  Perhaps the museum where
the videos were made have recordings for sale.

Regards, Cecil Dover
