Dear Andrew and Timothy, thanks for identifying the Robert Heilbuth
tune as "Die Peruanerin"!
The other day, I actually stumbled over another example. In the Vimeo
at-home video, Mr. Heilbuth plays a charming waltz tune on his Celestina
Organette. Listening to one of Harold Draper's new restoration
projects on YouTube, I immediately recognized it:

And now a question to you, Timothy: if I got it right, you have three
rolls for the band organ, which is still in Mr. Heilbuth's house in San
Francisco. But as your Heilbuth pipe organ has no less than three
roll-playing mechanisms, I hope that you have a lot of rolls for the
day the pipe organ comes to life again...
Apart from that, inspired by the Heilbuth at-home video, I made a humble
attempt myself:

Have fun!
