Abstract
The musical instrument, automatic organ is discussed in this paper. The organ is unique in size and specification and can best be described as a mechanical organ that can also be operated manually. With two roll players, it can accommodate both the more serious philharmonia and lighter orchestrion pieces, now being the only organ in the world that can play the latter.
