Notes

2004-10-30 - Compass 54/?. Received 1st premium, the silver medal, at the American Institute Fair in New York, Oct 1844. Included mechanical action which couples the pedals and keys at octaves, and enables any person not acquainted with pedal playing to bring out the magnificent effect of the deep pedal pipes, 10 stops enclosed in general swell, plus one octave of pedal pipes from CCC to CC. Manual compass CCC to f3. -Database Manager
