GWR08 Organs

Gavioli89Key1

Built circa 1895 in Paris. After being used in Europe, the organ was exported to the USA where it was fitted into a four a-breast carousal sometime before 1907. That ride still exists in the New York area. The organ was restored by A.Whitehad and the Wells family in 1997/98 having been derelict since 1923. All the decoration was done by the owners. In 1999,2002 and 2005 the organ and it's lorry went to the Waldkirch organ festival in Germany. Also in 2005 to Paris for La Loco en Fete.

Caution. This is an attempt at stitching together 5 pictures to create a high resolution panorama of the Gavioli Organ. In future I need to make sure I am square to the front and ideally square to the centre line of the target, but this is not bad for a first attempt. Pictures were processed in PSP for perspective, and the five images are provided as GaviloiA to E.
