RE: plastic reed plates? Magnus

["Robert Hale" <HaleRobert@xxxxxxx>]

 Finn Magnus
became a millionaire by manufacturing harmonicas that were entirely
made of plastic.

What a memory that  provoked! <grin>

I was 8 years old, living in San Francisco in an apartment on a steep hill
(surprise) when we got our Magnus Chord organ. Plastic reeds, alright, and a
fan to blow them. I didn't know that, till one broke and (being 8 years old)
got inside to figure it out. (never made a repair)

Learned all about chords, though, by finding the keyboard notes that were
compatible with the white chord buttons (Major) and the Black chord buttons
(Minor).
