Pump Organ

By Janice E Taylor, 28 June, 2008
Description

The pump organ was used in my church (and my uncle's) when I was small (50's) and he left it to me. It still works; he played it all the time. It still works.

Re: Pump Organ

Pump organs are one of those things that are very hard to sell, they were made in huge number from the 1860's through to the early 20th Century. At auction sometimes they fail to sell, other times they go for $300.00- $500.00 depending on who's in the crowd interested in converting them into a bar or desk ;~)

Re: Pump Organ

I have never thought about the possibility of converting church pump into a bar or desk. Why don't you want to ask if some church nearby would appreciate a donation of pump? Though, desks can find a use at school so it's a good option too. I was in a college few days ago to leave there booklets about essay writing service and looks like it experienced lack of benches.
