Welte Brisgovia D Piano Orchestrion
By Dave Krall

The Gilson collection has a large Welte Brisgovia D piano orchestrion
built in 1912 for William H. Miner.  I seem to remember reading
somewhere a story about how this instrument got saved at the last
moment while the Miner mansion was being torn down.  Does anyone
remember that story and where I can find it?

Thanks,
Dave Krall
