Kinderflutenpipe

20 pipe German design street organ

This organ has a fully functioning miniature carousel and animated monkey puppet on the top which are linked by pulleys, levers and rubber belts to the main drive shaft. It uses a hand-embossed metal drum instead of a paper roll (Each drum has eight simple tunes in concentric bands). Extra drums are stored in a three-wheeled box which fits in underneath the organ. It also has a 12 volt magnetic tape driver which can over-ride the mechanical drum to control the 20 valves electrically.
