I do not speak Spanish or Portuguese so I hope someone can translate
this for you.

I have restored a couple of these machines and a few variations,
like Manopan and Herophone.  They are hard to restore because of their
construction, and the reeds are on white metal mountings which expand
and prevent some of the reeds from sounding.  If you are interested or
have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you
