Re: Estey Harmoniums

2009-02-17 by ceccles_ca

Estey made a lot of them between 1900 and 1910.  They all used a
vacuum air system didn't they?  I have seen two Estey parlor organs at
the Antique shop in the past year.  $800 - $1200.  They both had leaky
air boxes and somewhat broken pump pedals. (an easy fix?)  

I'd like to see/play one with the pipe top.
