FS: Contents of Closed French Museum
By Dale Dohler

I am helping the owner of a private mechanical instrument museum
in northern France to sell part of his collection.  He has retired
and closed the museum.

The items being sold include 6 barrel pianos and orchestrions,
5 roll-operated instruments including a Red Welte cabinet piano,
3 music boxes including a sectional comb ca. 1815, 4 large organs
including a 72-key Decap, a Kalliston organette, an Orchestrelle
Model W, and some modern automata, plus other items.

I've been told most of the instruments have been fully restored.
If you are interested, please contact me and I will send you a list.
Photographs are available, but they are large files, so I'm only
sending those out by specific request.
