Victoria Organette Music List
By Kevin McElhone

In the year 2000 I wrote on MMD about the Victoria Organette, the
German upright organette which plays folder card music loops.  Since
then I have only found three other instruments, but all have very
tatty music.

I am trying to compile a list of surviving music in the hope that
I can get a re-cutting scheme off the ground in 2020, so if you
have one of these machines could you like your music for me please;
also indicating what size letter is stamped on the music please.

If you know of anyone making these music loops I would like to know,
otherwise I will try and source a maker somewhere in Europe.

Many thanks,
Kevin McElhone
