@wurlitzerwilly I've heard about this incredible collection, I would love to visit one day.

Did they play the Gaudin on the tour? The Gaudin at the Milhous collection was built for the collection by Johny Verbeeck.

@arburobill Quite amazing to see the difference between serial number 1076 (Preston Court's Mortier) which I have clips of on Youtube, and this one 1078. If it wasn't for the maker's name you'd never guess from looking they were the same manufacturer.

That organ is in my book.

Absolutely brilliant!

I agree with you about the front being modified, Perleeman. The 112 key Mortier in the Thursford collection is #1077 and is "as built" and completely different in design to this one. Paul Corin had a 102 key Mortier that was close to these two in serial number and also had a very geometric Deco front. I would like to know where it ended up, if anyone knows. Bill

This is a 112 key Mortier serial number 1078 built in 1938. The front appears to have been modified to be in keeping with the rival 121 key Decap Organs of the era which this organ was built. The tune is Ghostriders in the sky. Very nice!
Where did you film this?
