My reed organ

I inherited a Chicago "The Lakeside" reed organ ("American organ", or "harmonium") from my grandmother who died in 1994, but up until now my aunt has taken care of it. Yesterday I rented a car trailer and drove up to my aunt and took it with me. See pictures of the organ after I have secured it safely on the trailer:

The sheet music stand and some detachable decorative wood are not shown in the pictures. These were detached and put in box during transport. So last night I delivered the harmonium at an organ builders work shop to get it repaired and cleaned. He was kind enough to welcome me 10.15 pm on a Saturday. He even showed me around his work shop and invited me into his house to try his pipe organ.

I expect to get my beloved organ back some time during spring 2006. The sound quality and the key action of this organ is very good, so I am looking forward to have this instrument in my living room. It's visual appearance is also nice.
