Seek Tunes for 19th Century Flute Clock
By Derek Deane

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

G'day from Australia.  I was referred to you by Bob Essex in the UK.
I have a Black Forest organ clock, circa 1790-1830.  It had eleven
pipes, which are missing, plus all of the bridges have been removed
from the barrel.  Everything else is intact.

I was wondering if there is anyone that can help me to restore this
clock.  I need to know the scale of the pipes, also the tunes used at
that period.  A contact via email would be great, my email address
is below.  Hoping for some news.

Kind regards,
Derek Deane
