Titanic Organ
By Klaus Biber 

The "Welte Philharmonie Organ" which is in Bruchsal museum was actually
built for the Titanic.  This is certified by a letter from Frau Ilse
Bockisch, the wife of Karl Bockisch, the inventor of the Welte-Mignon
reproducing system.  I have seen a like-constructed organ owned by Mr.
Siegfried Wendel, Ruedesheim.
