Seek Roller Organs Restored by Edward Carpenter
By Lisa Schlimgen, forwarded

A recent visitor at my web site inquired as follows:

> From: mominterp2@aol.com (Lisa Schlimgen)
>
> I am interested in purchasing a roller organ and cobs.  My
> grandfather, Edward Carpenter restored many organs.  I  would be
> delighted if I could locate and purchase an organ restored by him.
> He restored many gem rollers and others.  To my knowledge he always
> left his signature somewhere inside the organ after restoration.
>
> Edward Carpenter lived in Cassville WI and did his restorations
> between 1960 and 1970's.  He was an avid collector/restorer/buyer/
> seller of roller organs, Reginas, and antiques of the like.
>
> Would appreciate any information.

I posted an ad on my web site, but does anyone here at MMD have any
leads for her?
