Pendragon Press announces the release of Bynum Petty’s book An Organ a Day: The Enterprising Spirit of M.P. Möller. The book is a collection of related essays focusing on significant events in the life of M.P. Möller and his enterprises—the world’s largest organ company, producing an organ a day; automobile companies; hotels; banks; railroads; and power companies.
With previously undiscovered source material found in the Library and Archives of the Organ Historical Society, the book’s 22 appendices contain the first-ever published complete Möller opus list—arranged both chronologically and by region.
There are also copies of Möller, Whitelegg, Felgemaker, and Roosevelt organ patents; copies of tonal director Richard Whitelegg’s pipe scales; stop-lists of famous organs; dozens of factory and family photos and the astonishing diary written by Möller during his European tour of 1921.
