Seek Drapers 14-note Organette & Melyphon Photos
By Kevin McElhone

I have requests for an instrument and some music which I do not have
in stock.  Can any MMD'ers help me out, please, to locate a Drapers
14-note Organette, with or without music.

I also need metal discs for 24-note Empire Organette, the same size
as Ariston but as it plays 2 tunes per disc the holes are much smaller
in width.

I need Kalliston Pankalon music; this is 42-track for a 36-note reed
organ plus bell and drum.

Does anyone have or know a museum that has a Melyphon organette?  This
instrument plays 24-note metal flat strips or bands.  We need photos of
the top of the instrument as a guide for the music bands is missing.

Thanks in advance,
Kevin Northampton, UK - (but would buy from anywhere)
