Reed Organ "Hermione" by Etienne Calba of Nancy
By Bjorn Isebaert

I am searching for more information on a 27-key reed organ made by
Etienne Calba at Nancy.  See photos at

  http://www.hooghuys.com/fotos/mmd/calba.jpg 

- The instrument is unplayable at the moment; does someone know the
scale of this type of organ?

- Does anyone know of similar or smaller or larger Calba-instruments?

Many thanks in advance for your help!
