Need information on Mustell Player Harmonium
By Tom Gregory

Greetings:

Shortly I will become the proud owner of a French (Paris) Mustell
Harmonium with a player unit.

Is there any information on this instrument in print?

I know that the organ contains approximately 16 sets of reeds.  There are
about 50 - 100 rolls which have instructions printed as to which
drawknob(s) to pull.

At present this instrument is not playing.  Bellows/regulators will need
to be recovered.  Also the player unit will need a complete restoration.

Any information regarding this instrument would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom Gregory
