Seek Nice Tune Card for Gavioli Barrel Organ
By Craig Smith

Hi, I recently bought a Gavioli, 25 key, barrel pipe organ. The machine
was beautifully restored by a friend of mine, except for one thing: it
has no tune card.

Another friend in Texas has a Gavioli organ and he sent me a scan of
its tune card. It's obviously authentic but it is very plain. I'm hoping
to find a Gavioli tune card with some nice graphics to compliment this
beautifully finished organ.

If you have a Gavioli barrel organ, please take a look inside the top
cover and see if it has a nice tune card. If the card is not in perfect
shape, no matter. I can give it the PhotoShop treatment and restore it.

If your organ does have a tune card, contact me and perhaps we can
arrange to get a copy for my organ. I'd really appreciate it.

Now I'm going into the music room and crank out a lucky tune on the
Gavioli.

Thanks,
Craig Smith
