Pipe Organ Pipework and Parts

These are some "Horkin' huge" Principal pipes built by Casavant in 1949. This includes the Windchest which the pipes stand on for the largest pipes. The smallest pipes (there are 80 of them total!) stood on a windchest that was part of the instrument that is not available.
If necessary, a suitable windchest can be found.
These pipes are best suited for large church organs of 3 or more manual keyboards, such as built by Æolian-Skinner, Moller or Casavant.
Professional installation can be arranged by the seller, which is a professional pipe organ company in central Illinois.
Exact scaling information upon request.

"Unusual" items

This is an Antique Produce Scale such as was found on the grocery counters in many turn-of-the-century General stores in rural America. The scale was built by the Computing Scale Company of Dayton, Ohio, USA. It is Style 1344 and is Serial # 323494. It is capable of weighing up to 30# of items on its heavy glass scale platform. There is a graph showing different prices for different items, which is how the scale "computes" the selling price.
This is a rare scale in excellent condition physically & mechanically and is still dead-accurate!
