Bell organ

Post by Bill Kibby »

The vast majority of piano names are not listed on the net, and I can't understand how it can take more than a few minutes to find that there is nothing out there, except for a few enquiries that have been made to this forum in the past.

The organ was made, as it says, by Bell, in Canada, and we are on the wrong side of the ocean to help much with that. Macintosh was a dealer in Edinburgh who sold it. Edinburgh is in Scotland. Macintosh became a limited company around 1912, so your organ is probably before that. The bits about Sheffield and Birmingham don't make any sense to me!
