    Description

    Based on the Serial Number, this organ was produced in 1900.
    My parents bought it at an auction in Burke, Vermont back in 1965 (when I was 5).
    We had that organ in the living room at our Vermont house in farm country until 2015 when we needed to sell the house and move on…
    I kept the organ after the sale, but the original purpose had been for playing while we were kids.
    It’s a keepsake now and never gets used anymore.
    I’d like to find it a good home - for someone who would like to have it.
    The organ hasn’t been recently examined by an expert (and I’m definitely not one), but it was restored in the 1990’s.
    There might be some other things to be fixed (if you want perfection), but everything works much better than it used to in my childhood. All the woodwork is original and in excellent condition.
    I can deliver if that might work ($.55/mile + labor from house to van), but the easiest way would probably be for the buyer to pick it up in Virginia (outside of Washington, DC).
    I’m willing to explore the possibilities with a potential buyer and see what we might be able to work out together.
    Contact me if you have any further questions.
    Thanks for looking at the ad.
