ESTEY, J., & CO.
ROS Reg No. 7058


* Right knee lever = Knee Swell; left knee lever = Grand Organ [so labelled].
* Bought in Scotland by the current owner's grandfather, who came to the U.S. about 1920.
* "J. Estey" designation is an anomaly, since the company changed its name to Estey Organ Co. in 1872. Ned Phoenix notes that the company was using old J. Estey labels at least that long.
* Pitch A445.
* Date from Estey label.
