Clough and Warren Reed Organ (Pump Organ, Harmonium) made in Detroit, Michigan, USA.

 

19 Stops – almost top of the range in their catalogue reproduced online {see https://antiquepianoshop.com/clough-warren/}. 

 

300+ reeds and patented Scribner resonator tubes which give it a much rounder sound than the average reed organ.  For a glowing description of these see https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=59&dat=18790805&id=OWpSAAAAIBAJ&sjid=zicDAAAAIBAJ&pg=2341,1365765&hl=en.   Includes 2ft Aeolian Harp stop in the bass, very loud 16ft Sub Bass giving an organ pedal effect and a full length octave coupler.  Reservoir was re-covered in proper rubber cloth about 5 years ago. It all works and last time I played it all the reeds sounded. 

 

 

Said to have come from a church in the Orkney isles.

 

Label quotes patent dates 1876, 1884, 1885, 1887, so made after that but before 1910.  Serial number 104047.

 
 

Approximate size: Height: 54 inchesWidth: 29 1/2 inches – check your doorway widths !
Length: 57 inches

 

Condition is Used. Some damage to casework, especially the music stand – see pictures – and the top needs re-finishing. 

 

 

Selling because we anticipate moving house and not having room for it.

 

 

It is very heavy so definitely collection in person only.  We can get it out of the house and onto our flat driveway.  I strongly reccomend you collect with a tail-lift van – if not then bring several strong friends.  With your help I can get this onto a tail-lift but I’m not able to assist with lifting it directly into a vehicle.  We are located North of Liverpool, about 10 mins from the Western end of the M57 & M58, giving easy access to the M6.
