This 20-note “Celestina” organette was produced by the Munroe Organ Reed Company and mass-marketed by the Mechanical Orguinette Company (later The Aeolian Organ and Music Company) during the 1880s and 90s. The organette uses rolls of perforated paper, on which the music is recorded. Air pressure or vacuum is produced by hand-, crank- or foot-operated mechanical bellows. The organette was compact and affordable with large selections of music available. The organette’s popularity declined as the phonograph was introduced and became more affordable. 12 music rolls come with this instrument.
