Hello! I just found an instrument which I believe is an Ehrlich
Orchestrionette, a 26-note organette played with endless bands.
Sorry to say, the instrument has been tampered with, and I feel
that there must be some parts missing.
In looking at old catalogue illustrations and comparing with the organ
itself, there is some controversy regarding the position of the crank.
Please visit my weblog and let me know what you think:

If anyone of you MMDers have an Orchestrionette, I would be very glad
to see detailed pictures of the crank mechanism.
Best regards,
