Aeolian "Princess" 46-note Player Organ
By Kevin McElhone

As I understand,  the [George Whight] "Victolian" has one set of
reeds, with draws for two stops, Tempo and Re-roll, dated circa 1887.

The Aeolian "Princess" has two sets of reeds, four stops (two for
the 8-foot and 4-foot pitch reeds in addition to the two above) and
is dated perhaps one year later.

I have owned both of these instruments and I know of a total of three
here in the UK.
