I have recently purchased a Faventia barrel piano and cart and am
now looking for additional cylinders, the stuffed donkey and the
dummy.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

(None of the MMD articles note that the dummy was nattily dressed,
wore a beret, had a faux cigarette hanging from his lips, had feet of
lead to keep him standing still, and one hand was shaped to go round
the crank.  Perhaps you did not know of him because he was only an
option on Faventias with electric conversions).

My father owned a Faventia, cart, donkey, man, extra cylinders,
with an electric conversion; Dad's could be played either manually
or electrically.  When he passed away my mother sold the lot for
a pittance, being angry at Dad for dying on her.  We children were
heartbroken.

Today my husband bought me the Faventia and the cart.  I am eager to
find as many of the other items as possible!  In the way of cylinders
I would especially like the Christmas music.  Thanks!
