Band Organs at Great Circus Parade, Milwaukee, WI
By Bob Conant

Dear folks,  My addled mind made an error in describing Ron Bopp's
wonderful Verbeeck organ. It is 45 key (not 41) and is a super sounding
instrument.  I have had the pleasure of cranking it several times
although it does have a motor available for playing at long lasting
venues.

It is mounted on a neat 3-wheeled wooden cart like those found in
the Netherlands.  Ron has already made several accessories for it and
is accumulating a nice repertoire of music.  He will also have it at
several of the COAA rallies this summer.  Don't miss it.

Cheers,
Bob Conant
Bradenton, Florida
