FS: Model "F" Orchestrelle Player Organ
By Peter Davis

I have for sale from my collection a magnificent Model 'F'
Orchestrelle.  This is one of the largest Orchestrelles made and
is similar to the one in the Birmingham Science Museum and also
that pictured in Ord-Hume's book, "Clockwork Music", termed a 'Solo'
Orchestrelle as it plays 58-note and 116-note rolls.

This instrument has been the subject of lengthy restoration working
from the main bellow upwards.  All 250 plus valves and pouches have
been renewed along with all changeover pouches.  The magnificent
mahogany case has been re-polished and looks splendid.  This would
make a wonderful addition to any collection.  Asking price is £12,000
and it is located in London, UK.
