To Tim Rickman, who asked about Mortier:  While I have no expertise with
organs (I'm a music box person!) I do have a new book with _lots_ of
pictures of some Mortiers.  The facades on these machines were
fabulous!

The book is called  "Draaiorgels", written by R. deWaard.  The main text
is written in Dutch, but each chapter and each picture has captions in
English.  The hundreds of pictures are crisp and clear and show all kinds
of band organs in use in 'native' surroundings.

Price is $48.50 + $4.50 postage.  It's worth having, if only to get ideas
for your facade!  If you know someone who speaks Dutch, you could learn
even more!   Enjoy!
