[BCMA] Please post to Listserv

Greetings,

 

I was told by the BC Museum Association that I could post my Pump Organ to
your site Listserv. 

 

A little history: My husband's grandparents owned this organ. They lived in
Victoria. It became an heirloom for us when they passed away but we have to
move. Hopefully we can find someone who will appreciate it and give it a
good home. It is an Uxbridge organ and was produced in approximately the
1880's. It has been kept inside, dry and in excellent shape except for one
of the buttons that create the sound needs adjusting or fixing. In 1973, a
joint stock company known as the Uxbridge Cabinet Organ Company was formed
and in 1879 the company became known as the Uxbridge Piano and Organ
Company. Uxbridge organs and pianos were shipped all over North America. 

 

I hope someone out there will take an interest in this organ. It has meant a
lot to have it as part of my husband's heritage.

 

Cheers,

Wendy Ashby
