Orchestrelle Confusion
By Walt Kehoe

My apologies to the list for offering you a bit of incorrect information.
As my good friend Joe Hanulec pointed out for all the to world to see :),
I did indeed confuse the two machines.  These things do happen after you
pass 55.  You now have information on another Duo-Art Orchestrelle.

I wonder how many of them were actually made.  The one that Rick Smith
has was not made in the same construction style as the solo Orchestrelles
before it.  It was made with construction techniques found in later pipe
organs made by the Aeolian Company and not in the style of the Vocallion
company.
