Time to Restore Wilcox & White "Symphony" Player
By Herb Lindahl

Hello to all at MMD,  I am trying to determine a rough estimate of the
time involved in doing a complete interior restoration of a Wilcox &
White "Symphony" player organ.  Is the mechanism to operate it based
on early pouch blocks made by Wilcox & White?  How is the roll driven
(wind motor, governor, etc.)?  How many sets of reeds are there?

Any and all info would be greatly appreciated.  Phone calls are welcome
as well as private emails.  Thank you.
