Seek Svoboda's Nelson-Wiggen 4T Gaming Orchestra
By Jim Quashnock
The Mechanical Music Registry Project database of 2017 lists one
Nelson-Wiggen 4T Gaming Orchestra (s/n 109496) that was previously
owned by Svoboda's Nickelodeon Tavern. I have been told by a well
respected collector that a 4T, owned by Helene Sutter (estate), was
offered for sale twice by Bohnam's in Los Angeles last December 2011.
This may or may not be the same instrument. In either case, there
is at least 1 known 4T out there -- unless it was sent to the dump.
Does anyone have knowledge of where that instrument might be now?
I could sure use some information on the gaming action. Thanks in
advance for any help.
