Seek Seeburg Mortuary Organ Information
By James Lee

Some time ago I acquired a two-manual, 25-pedal Seeburg Mortuary Organ.
It has no external pipes, blower, or chimes.  However, I think every-
thing else is there.  In addition, there were twelve rolls in the
built-in storage compartment.  Mice had destroyed two or three of them,
but the rest seem to be fine.  Everything internal seems to be there
and in relatively good condition.  It also has the original bench.

I am looking for anyone who has an organ like this, in order to get
some information.  I can't decide whether I want to restore it or
pursue work on a pipe organ I have acquired.  If anyone has any infor-
mation on such an organ or any pictures of one restored, I would
appreciate hearing from you.

James Lee,
in Missouri
