    It has since been completely rebuilt again with brass trumpets among other pipes added, i have yet to see or hear it so have no idea what it sounds like now!, although 84 key it actually used an extended 68 key Bursens scale, Arthur Prinsen made a few of these organs from larger dance organs, i have seen one other in England and there are others in Japan and the US.

    This is, in fact, not a Mortier organ. Who built it is unclear, but the style of the original side case carvings it once had suggests it might have been a 1920's Decap (one of their early large organs.) It appears in a 1970's Mackinnon catalogue, with a larger facade and an accordion, and the facade style is decidedly not Mortier.

      Thank you for clearing that up - it was very difficult to find information on this instrument. I'll update the description.
