Subject: RE: Harmonium seeks loving home (Ireland)
Last week someone phoned me to ask if mine was still available.
But he wanted to demolish it and use the bellows!
I said NO, the bellows were perished and anyway, it's an antique!
Humph!!!
Mine is about the same size as yours but I suspect it's a bit older - it has more carving, scrolls and flowery bits. It does still play but needs lots of pumping on the pedals to get the air moving through. It's labelled the Imperial Organ Company of Canada and was imported by the Dresden Piano Company.
So it can stay where it is, on the back porch!!!
