Hello, I've posted some Heilbuth footage on YouTube:

Cheers,

[ The description says "Heilbuth built pipe organs out of various bits
[ and pieces. He composed original waltzes and polkas for his organs,
[ which played his tunes via paper rolls. Here, we see his band organ
[ (orchestrion) playing his arrangements of 'Minuit Polka' Op.168 (Emil
[ Waldteufel) and 'Never On A Sunday' (Manos Hadjidakis, Billy Towne).
[ Recorded by me in Heilbuth's San Francisco home, March 19, 1994."
