Restoring Duo-Art Pipe Organ Player Cabinet
By Don Taig

Hi MMDers, I have a chance to acquire an Aeolian Duo-Art player
pipe organ roll cabinet. It is in need of a full restoration:
pneumatics, tubes/pipes and electrics. I believe it was attached
to a "Marie Antoinette" pipe organ.

I am seeking any technical bulletins, schematics for the electrics
and tubing that would help my cause. I'm keen to save this mechanical
wonder, but would like to do so within the comfort of being able to
read and study the written word and/or drawings. I would be happy
to pay for any photocopying, etc.

It is a two-door, single roll spool box (lift-up lid), stamped
647 Aeolian Duo Art player.

Any assistance would be gratefully received.

My best,
Don Taig
Northcote, Vic., Australia
