What a magnificent organ from the past! The soothing sounds from this wonderful instrument made it perfect for "background, elevator music" in large estates, funeral homes or "roaring"performances for silent movies . Few of these instruments were ever produced and fewer remain today, NONE IN THIS WONDERFUL COMPLETE AND RESTORED CONDITION. Since very few of the original rolls are available today and no recutting projects are planned,, this instrument has been expanded to play a wide variety of available rolls as well as the original Unified Reproduco rolls, as discussed below.
A. When conversion/restoration is completed, the instrument will play "O," "OS" and "NOS" new, recut rolls interchangeably through a sliding connector to give you full capabilities. Additional recut music rolls are readily available.
