FS: Pipes from American Photo Player Organ
By Bill Klinger

In cleaning out a storeroom at a church that was disposing of their
pipe organ I found 22 Vox Mystica pipes from a "Fotoplayer".  They are
stamped with the number 8019 # 10 in addition to the other markings.

The bad news is that there are only the major portions of two octaves.
The lowest note is C which has all the markings on it.  The resonator
is about 6" to the block and all the pipes have extended boots.  (This
C is 32" tall.)  The B's are both missing!

If anyone is rebuilding a "Fotoplayer" and could use these pipes, please
contact me.
