Thank you for caring

Marvzel- I wish this awesome instrument was in my garage though she would not like the St. Louis winters- or summers for that matter! Thanks for sharing a beautiful piece of musical and mechanical history that few people now realize exists. Just look at some of the comments regarding player piano posts. Some apparently college age kids think they are fakes or computer generated videos.

Oh to have that much spare time! Again, thanks so much!

HI: Thank you! It is playing in a 2 car garage with the doors open. I used a little FLIP camera. It plays books. I just got the Phantom of the opera. I hope to have it on asap.

If I'm not mistaken, isn't this the former Kitner Bruder organ?

[marvzel]

HI:

Yes it was the Kitner organ. I bought it from Rick Cooley about 2 years ago. It was a cover on the IMBS magazine. It now lives in Florida. Do you have any photos of the organ when Kitner owned it?

HI: Stars & Stripes is one of the best marches

ever written.

I AM VERY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN. IF NOT FOR AMERICA THE WORLD WOULD BE SPEAKING GERMAN AND JAPANESE. IF YOU WERE STILL ALIVE!!

I think 121omePiet was kidding... a little joke about how extreme politics is getting these days... in both directions. Certainly, Stars and Stripes Forever is (or should be) a march that can bring all U.S. Americans together regardless of background or political affiliation... it is a great piece of music. Sounds nice on this organ, too.

@marvzel Of course A. H. and WW II were very bad. But believe me, not everything what the USA has done is great and good for the world. Just ask a a first nation member! Or someone from Chile. And where are Saddams weapons of mass destruction? Sometimes its better to shut down an overdriving patriotism and switching on your brain! This planet has troubles enough and we have to solve it together. But that only works if nobody thinks that he/she or his/her country is better than the others!
