Percussion Striker Systems in European Organs
By Sam Harris

Robbie asked about the make of the organ and previous rebuilding.
It's a Bruder organ, 96-key, about 427 pipes.  Major restoration work
was done between 1975 and 1980.  During the restoration the organ was
converted to play the Wurlitzer Military style rolls.  If I remember
the label right it's the Style 165 format.
