Last week, at the premises of Stichting Eendracht in Alkmaar,
Netherlands, the door was rammed and broken open and the 48-key
street organ known as 'Winnie the Pooh' or 'Winnie de Poeh' was
stolen from the organ hall.
If anyone is offered a Dutch street organ for sale which could
be this organ, please contact the owner, Mr. Ruud Brienen,
in the Netherlands on tel.: +31 725 625 376
or mobile: +31 6 1369 7072
or the police office of Alkmaar, tel.: +31 0900 8844
or fax: +31 72 519 5411
or you can e-mail me at <happycow.music@virgin.net> or telephone
me in the UK on 01246-231608 (00441246-231608).
The pipe chest is almost new, 48 keys, bourdon and violin registers.
A picture of the organ will be placed at the MMD Pictures site.
Any information regarding the whereabouts of this organ would be
appreciated.
