Serinettes by S. F. De Potter
By Françoise Dussour

I have seen several serinettes (little bird-organs) from S. F. De
Potter in St. Niklaas (Antwerp, Belgium).

Can you help me find some accounts, articles, or books about his
production (probably imported from Mirecourt in Lorraine, France)?

Best regards from France,
Françoise Dussour

  [ According to the book "Mechanische Instrumenten," by Isabelle
  [ Deleuse and Anne Meurant, S. F. De Potter was active as an
  [ organette maker in Sint Niklaas in the early 19th century.
