A model Gavioli organ, built to go with the owner's Maxwell Hemmens Showmans engine (since sold, but we've another just arrived in new, unsteamed condition if you need one to go with the organ!).

Wired up to play from a vintage "Walkman" type tape player - for younger readers that's music that's printed onto a very thin plastic ribbon, which is then wound through rubber rollers in the player until sound comes out. Sort of halfway between punched card music and Spotify.
