For Sale : Verbeeck 65 key fairground organ
Shame that its a wurlitzer playing and not the verbeeck. (thats to say Im not against wurlys) Pete

Looks like one of the organs imported in 1976 via Arthur Prinsen to Arthur Masons. I think the front pipework was added later by Johnny Verbeeck in the 80's. There were at least two 50 key organs (now owned by T&B Farley) imported at the time. I'm not sure if the ex Turners 72 key was part of this too, does anyone know? Regards Robert Washington :org:

Hi Rob, Is the Verbeeck for sale the ex Bygon Village one? Cause it looks the one used to be there. Ben :D

Does anyone know any history of the verbeeck organ offered by Pat Collins?

There is no real "history" as such as it was newly built when imported by Hubert Nixon. Jeremy Brice's reply (posted elsewhere) sums it up.

Hi everyone, There's two threads going on about the same organ - my posting can be found forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1227>here . Jeremy. I owe, I owe, so off to work I go .......
