Seek Reservoir for Welte-Mignon "Original"
By Tony Marsico

I am still looking for the large reservoir with the two pneumatics
for the Welte "Original", a picture of which is in the images
section of the MMD Archives.  Does anyone have one in their junk
pile?  Can someone take some measurements of one of these and send
them to me?  Or I could rebuild one in exchange for the copying
of it, shipping paid both ways.  Jere Ryder had one of these pianos
years ago; does anyone know where it went to?

Also, the buttons on the keyslip of the Welte "Original": are they
soft bass and soft treble or are they buttons to increase the volume
in these sections, like the Ampico?

Thanks,
Tony Marsico
