Hello again. The lady with the calliope pipes has given me
permission to post her phone number so interested parties may talk with
her directly. It is (630) 668-3252, her name is Edie, and she is very
knowledgeable about music, just not calliopes, though she and her late
husband were big fans of my monkey grind organ. I don't think she'd
ever sell the pipes for scrap brass!
It's definitely 43 pipes, not 44, and some private correspondents
are pretty certain that she has a standard Tangley set, good for high
pressure air or steam.
Thanks to all who have responded, publicly or privately. Now let's
help find these pipes a good home.
Mike Knudsen
