Sanfilippo Imhof & Mukle Orchestrion
By Nicholas Simons

In answer to Dave Krall, the Sanfilippo orchestrion was purchased from

the late Graham Whitehead of Ashorne Hall, Warwickshire, England, who

had bought it from the residence of the late Lord Hastings at his country

house in Norfolk, of which I cannot remember the name.  Graham and his

restorer, Paul Camps, did a full restoration of this organ, which was

still working from its original barrels.  I think it had somewhere around

98 keys.
