Gavioli Products Built at 3 Rue de Citeaux, Paris
By Hans van Oost

Dear MMD'ers,  For my investigation about Gavioli products I am in
desperate need for building numbers found inside Gavioli products
which were produced between about 1865 and 1870, when the company
was located at the address 3 Rue de Citeaux, Paris.

I know of several existing instruments, mostly small organs, with
this address, but until now I don't have any building numbers of these
instruments.  Either no numbers were found, or the owner did not
respond to my question.

I would like to ask anybody who owns such an instrument to have
a look inside.  If you find a number inside (ranging from about 2100
to 5000) please contact me, if possible with the type, number of keys
and maybe a picture.  I will be very grateful for any help.

Regards from the Netherlands,
Hans van Oost
