The sound quality of this Orchestrion is breathtaking, with instruments including a visible accordion, 168-pipe organ, triangle, and drums all controlled by one of 20 rolls included with this piece. ... Founder Joseph Bursens began his career working with his father at the Mortier organ manufactory in Antwerp. ... and eventually opened his own manufactory in Hoboken in 1908. ... In 1928, Brusens' son, Arthur, took over the business and decided to take on a partner, Gustav Roels, renaming the company ARBURO (ARthur BURsens and ROels). ... The Orchestrion was created from the 1930s through the 1960s. ... The trademark plaque affixed to the Orchestrion includes Bursens previous address "Bernardsche Steenweg, 181," meaning this Orchestrion was created between 1928 and 1929. ..."
