Seek Laterna Turkish Barrel Piano by Turconi
By Brian Chesters

Hello MMD'ers,  I have two English chamber barrel organs for sale and
have put one on eBay.

 [ See the eBay announcement at the end of this email MMDigest.

I received the following question from <gkiriakidis@hotmail.com>,
perhaps someone out there can help.

Dear sir/madam,

This is a beautiful item indeed.  I myself am after a barrel piano of
Turkish make known as a "Laterna" by the local Greek and Turkish
communities in Constantinople (modern day Istanbul) back in the late
1800's.  A popular maker was "Turconi".  I am very keen on obtaining a
Turconi Laterna.  Do you have anything of this nature or can you point
me in any direction.

Thank you, George.
