Hi All, Using the search engine "HOTBOT" and the words "Barrel Organ",
I found some interesting items. It is now obvious to me some search
engines are worthless. Rather then say which ones I will let you know
what one I used!
Site Number One: Round N Round a carousel restoration magazine.
Several on-line articles and nice pictures. Article on Wurlitzer Band
Organ (See Inside workings)

Site Number Two: Pebworth's Player Piano Center features nice pictures
of player pianos that are for sale as well as REAL AUDIO files of them
playing. You can even hear and see items that have been sold.

Site Number Three: Musica Fantastica (Room of organs) tiny little
pictures of several types of street organs. This page is part of a
tourist trap....Umm Aaa I mean tourist sight. One nice 600K audio file
gets this place mentioned
http://sasebo.sasebo.tao.or.jp/htb_e/msd/orgel/organ.htm
Site Number Four: Online German Museum (Don't be fooled by my last
name: I don't speak German) that features MOV files of all types of
science experiments as well as Mechanical Musical Instruments.

Till next time ... happy site seeing!
And don't touch that humor, Jody!
