Subject: Hammond B-3?

Hi, Mark.  A fellow member of our PIPORG-L e-mailing list mentioned the
existence of your Hammond-oriented list.  On 17 October 1994, I posted the
following to that list, and I thought it might be of some interest to your
list subscribers.  (The organ was of the "box-on-legs" design.)  Larry

============ Posting to PIPORG-L from 17 Oct 1994 ==================

Yesterday I saw a Hammond organ for sale.  I *think* it is a B-3, but I
could find no nameplate.  There was a "service record" chart in the bench,
and it showed that the organ was oiled in December of 1959.  It has two
manuals with full drawbars and the extra octave of bass keys that act as
stop switches.  It had a rotary knob for controlling "vibrato" and "chorus"
and there were a half-dozen rocker-type stop tablets.  The organ was listed
as including a speaker cabinet.  The pedalboard was not to be seen, but it
might well have been somewhere around.

This was at "Memories", an antique (and reproductions) dealer on Route 17
in Parksville, NY, 12768.  The contact person there was Kathleen Sullivan,
1-800-ABC-TIME.  The asking price was $350, and the organ was in their
"as-is" room.  The person I spoke with did not know if the organ played.
