20 note Raffin street organ

Organ grinder's view of a 20 note Raffin organ on display at the Algonquin Mill fall festival near Carrollton, Ohio. The owners display it to educate youngsters about mechanical music.

Please excuse the shaky camera and uneven tempo.

@GermanStreetOrgan as Hiddo posted, the Roll is by Ed Gaida. Having no bridges in the paper compromises the stability of the paper and therefor the longevity of the roll. Especially while rewinding such a roll, on the "long cuts" the paper might start shifting/overlapping & folding, once the roll starts folding it is just a nightmare.

@theorganguy Raffin made the roll ( I think) and the owner is Ed Ditto. Whats wrong with the roll not having bridges in the roll?

@theorganguy The same thing happened to me.

[GermanStreetOrgan]

The previous owner was Ed Ditto.

Did the cart have a miniture wooden horse infront of it?!?!

[GermanStreetOrgan]

Actually that looks like my new Raffin!

I believe the previous owner must have taken the organ there once.

There has seemed to be some issues with IMOD membership approvals recently. I suggest you try contacting the site owner. His YT channel is 'fairorgan', so you might be able to send him a private message.
