| Zusammenfassung: | "Organettes were sometimes called 'the poor man's musical box' at their inception in the 1870s, for they were a relatively cheap instrument made in vast numbers that sold at prices that the general public could easily afford. Many types of instruments were produced, especially in the United States. One of their unique characteristics was that they often had very curious mechanisms. The music strips, discs, rolls, and other means of making the instrument work, were not often compatible with other manufacturer's machines. This Encyclopedia is a close look at the various manufacturing companies in the United States that produced these musical marvels, from the American Automatic Organette Company to the World Manufacturing Company. Each company has an individual chapter dedicated to its history, profusely illustrated with original black and white advertising and / or color lithographs of the instruments. Meticulous research has provided, where available, company owners, location of factories, instruments produced, periods of company activity. Since many of the companies produced a variety of instruments with different names, there is an Easy-Finding List that gives the names and trademarks of various American organettes (and related instruments) and the chapters in which primary information about them can be found. Certain retailers sold many different brands. For brands known to have been manufactured by others, the organettes are listed under the maker. As an example, the Massachusetts Organ Co. retailed many organettes made by others. For other makers and brands see the indispensable Index at the end of the book. This will be an exciting addition to your book collection of automatic musical instruments. And if this is your first volume, then you will have started your collection with a book penned by a well-known and respected author whose multiple books in the field have no equal." -- BookBaby.com |
