Located in Colorado. Repaired to playing condition Jan. 2013. Was missing candle holders and top. This organ is a 16,8,4,4/8,8,4 which means it has a 16'' sub bass, 3 separate sets of reeds in the bass that are two 4 fts. and one 8ft. There are also 3 sets in the treble. Total of 196 reeds. Very well appointed for an early 1880s organ. This organ was pictured in the 1882 J. Estey catalog. see pictures. Pitch is A450, Bass/treble break is a B/C. Most regular parlor organs are 8,4/8,8. This early coupler is made primarily from wood and works very well. Part of the Swett Collection
