NEW For Sale: Apollo Reed Organ
The organ is in very good condition, with no sign of worm or excessive wear, ciphers or sticky notes
- and for someone with the time to give it a good clean, and a rub down to
get rid of the awful varnish, they'd end up a very nice instrument indeed.
Unfortunately its present location in my study does not allow for a good
picture, but the illustrations on the web-site showing similar instruments
should suffice. The serial number is 1089, which should give some indication
as to the date of manufacture.
The first with £450, walks off with a bargain

For Sale: Estey Organ
made in Brattleboro, USA and sold through W. Howlett and Son who were based in Norwich.
The stops it has are: "Bass Coupler", "Bourdon", "Melodia", "Diapason", "Clarionet", and "Treble Coupler".
I purchased it approximately 15 years ago and played it for many years.
It has spent a number of years as part of an exhibition in Yeovilton Fleet Air Arm museum (Somerset).
The museum will not retain it indefinitely and I have accepted that I am unlikely ever to have
sufficient room to be able to retain ownership. There were no faults when the museum
became custodians and I believe it is still in good working order 
(buyer would be able to verify this on collection - I am not in a position
to deliver it but would liaise with the museum to arrange for buyer to collect).
Offers invited.

For Sale: MALCOLM ORGAN
A handsome Malcolm Organ built by John G.
Murdoch & Co Ltd, London probably about 1900. In 1982 it was completely restored by Mr J.R.
Bell (formerly of R.F. Stevens Ltd. Est 1853) who dismantled it in his
workshop, completely overhauled the cavity board, recovered the bellows and
feeders, supplied new leather valves, felts and springs, and cleaned, regulated
and tuned it.
It is in excellent playing
condition, and the case has only a few small signs of wear. 
The lid can be locked, and there is a small
‘wind-up’ stool.
The apparent
distortions of the keyboard in the photograph are due to decreased pixelation
when the picture was scaled down – it doesn’t really look like that!
The fifteen stops, left to
right, are: Sub bass 16', Bass coupler,
Principal 4', Piano 4', Diapason 8', Bassoon 16', Forte, Vox Humana, Clarionet
16', Flute 4', Melodia 8', Vox Celesta 8', Dulcet 8', Treble coupler, Hautboy
8'.
There are also two knee couplers: left – great, right – swell. 
It’s located in S.E. London,
where it can be viewed and played. Any
reasonable offer around £175.00 will be considered. Regret that it can’t be delivered, so the
buyer will have to arrange collection.

For Sale: The Richard Wagner Organ
Estey Organ Company Brattleboro, VT. USA
100% state & functionality
I found old Richard Wagner Estey Organ in my Grandfather´s (he was organist
all his life) house in Slovakia.
Information regrding this organ:
From i.A. Dr. Gudrun Föttinger
Richard-Wagner-Museum mit Nationalarchiv
und Forschungsstätte der Richard-Wagner-Stiftung
D-95444 Bayreuth
"In der Tat besaß Richard Wagner eine Orgel, die sich in der Halle von
Wahnfried befand. Cosima Wagner spricht in ihren Tagebüchern am 9. Mai 1876
von einer amerikanischen Orgel, die Richard Wagner erhalten hat. Leider ist
das Instrument nicht erhalten geblieben.
"
Richard Wagner had an organ,which was in the Wahnfried hall . Cosima Wagner
speaks in her diary on 9 May 1876 about an American organ,which Richard Wagner
got. Unfortunately, this organ was not abide at the place.
From:
Phil Stimmel
"This organ is what is known as a "Boudoir" style organ. I don't know how
many of this model Estey made, but I'm sure it was quite a few.
Organ builders during this time frequently sent one of their organs to
various famous people in the hopes of getting a recommendation or
testimonial form them. One of the Brattleboro, VT newspapers published the
following in 1876,
"A FINE ESTEY ORGAN WAS SENT TO WAGNER, THE MUSICAL COMPOSER OF BAIREUTH,
PRUSSIA. WAGNER RESPONDED WITH AN APPROPRIATE ENDORSING STATEMENT: \'THE
TONE OF THE ESTEY ORGAN IS VERY BEAUTIFUL AND NOBLE AND GIVES ME THE
GREATEST PLEASURE. MY GREAT FRIEND, FRANZ LISZT, IS ALSO CHARMED AND
DELIGHTED."
