Player Pipe Organs
By Tom Dimock
> In response to Karl Ellison's question about getting information > concerning player pipe organs
Another place to look is the Theatre Organ site on the web at:
http://pentium.wcbi.com:80/organs/ads/wtsell.htm
They have a long list of classifieds, both buy and sell. Most of the stuff is electronic garbage, but there is a fair amount of real organ stuff in there. One ad currently listed is:
> WTS:Aeolian-Skinner residence player pipe organ > > "HISTORIC 1933 AEOLIAN-SKINNER residence player organ, op. 902, 2m, > M I, M II, Ped, all enc., 8 ranks, including French Horn and Flute Celeste. > Excellent condition. Chest preparations for 2 additional stops. Hand carved > ornate console in near mint condition! Includes numerous player rolls of > famous organists including Dupre. (Player mechanism needs work.) Easy > removal. Asking $15,500. (402)476-9933, 1-4 pm CDT, M-F." > > Asking: $15,500 > > Jack M. Levick > Lincoln, , NE USA > Phone: (402) 476-9933
A little out of my price range, but it sounds like a fine machine to me! Here's another which might be of interest to y'all:
> Steinway Organ Piano For Sale > > For Sale: Steinway-Welte Organ Piano. Ebony grand piano, Steinway Model O, > 6'-10" overall length. Welte vacuum powered (remote pump) player mechanism > with dynamic expression. Solenoid valves are driven directly by pipe magnet > signal voltage from organ relay. Best offer. Email Jack Hardman
