Literature About Organ Players
By Andy LaTorre

Once again I have been going through my old files.  Time to make room
for the new interests.  Years ago I was deeply interested in the
Aeolian Duo-Art organ player and other players.  I had, at that time,
purchased a unit without its case.  I sold it before I moved to North
Carolina.  I offer the following free items (it will cost you an
envelope and postage) to the first e-mailer stating which item number
is of interest:

1- (a) packet of about 6 b/w prints and negatives of the player
   (b) Booklet, "Duo-Art Aeolian Pipe-Organ by George Ashdown Audsley,
reprint by Organ Lit. Foundation.  Mint condition.  Email me to see if
you are the first.

2- Reprint of the above booklet in the MBS journal of 1974.  Mint
condition.  Email me to see if you are the first.

3- My thin file on the Austin Quad.  Includes tracker bar layout,
original offer of player by Allen Miller, article by Petty.  From the
Diapason with photos.  Poor Xerox of another article by Ray Brubacher,
Theater Organ Bombard, Feb. 1969.  Email me to see if you are the
first.

4- Another thin file but this time on the Skinner roll player.  Two
large b/w photos, letter from seller, Mr. Raymond Korns, that's it.
Email me to see if you are the first.

5- American Piano Supply Co. catalog #7623, copyright 1962 with 1966
supplement.  Absolutely mint condition.  Email me to see if you are
the first.

6- Tubing diagram for the Aeolian Duo-Art organ player.  Not too
professional, just a basic sketch  originally made for my own use.
No email - just send a business SASE.
