Small Monkey Organs by John Smith
By Brian Chesters

Hi there,  I have been following the string about John Smith's organ
plans.  Is this the same John Smith of Woking in Surrey?

Twenty years ago I sold him a Steinway Red Welte upright Vertegrand and
some other items.  A few years back he suffered a heart attack but
seemed to be okay after.  I know he did make at least one 20-note organ
in the late '70s and early '80s because one turned up in a London
auction and he bought it back.  Is this the same guy?
