I bought this organ several years ago from its maker, Ralph Jenkins, whose name is still on the centre panel in the picture.  Unfortunately I haven't had the time to take it out and about as much as it deserves and need to sell it now to free up garage space.  It has always been stored under cover and is in excellent condition throughout.  It is located near Yeovil in Somerset (UK).

The organ was originally christened "Patricia" after the maker's wife.  With it's Nelsonian pictures I had contemplated re-naming it "Spirit of Trafalgar" or something similar and painting that on the trailer nameboards, but these are currently blank (for better or worse I have painted out the original wording "Ralph's Amazing Organ on Tour"!). 

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a unique musical instrument, ready to play.

Priced at £8,000.  To view and listen contact me by email in the first instance at dlovelock@lineone.net
