Congratulations of your purchase. Who is the lucky restaurer who gets to work with this instrument? I think we all would like to see more pictures of instrument and restoration progress.
Best Regards Jaakko

In order to document the mediocre Condition i was doing 2 performances in Youtube:
Fast loud and furious: Slow piano and soft:
For the offer i made many many more pictures from the inside of the instrument. You asked me whether there will be some pictures of the restauration. You will see them in some time on http://www.o-h-r.com/aktuell.html
At the moment he is working on a Mustel celesta, a Schmiedmayer Dominator, and a Lindholm Organ 2mp. The restorer has a big list of Pictures of his done instruments on this sites, nice to see under the cover without screedriver...
regards Walter

Congratulations!
If the restorer needs any pictures of a similar instrument to reconstruct missing parts you can contact me or visit me in Heidelberg. I have a similar instrument, maybe you have already seen it:
Mine is still not fully restored, but in a somewhat playable condition.

Hi
Last Weekend i was bringing this Mustel to Thomas Reilich www.o-h-r.com for restauration.
Marc Richli (or the swiss expert how he is called in this forum) was telling me that there was a napped dark green Paper instead of the blue paper used everywhere to cover bellows, which also was used by bookbinders at the time for the cover of French Books. Does anybody know by chance whether this paper is still available somewhere? - and how it looks like exactly?
Thanks and regards Walter

Some later instruments seem to have had some thick dark blue paper on their pumps (see Mustel N°2324 on this forum for instance). Otherwise, what you are looking for is some starch-filled cloth, generaly used for book binding.
But possibly in any good book binding shop closer to you.
Certains instruments un peu tardifs chez Mustel avaient leurs pompes recouvertes de papier bleu somble épais et glacé (voir Mustle N°2324 par exemple). Sinon, ce que vous cherchez est une toile amidonnée utilisée généralement en reliure. Vous pouvez en trouver chez Relmas à Paris, ou sans doute chez Russels en Angleterre. Mais aussi dans tous les bons magasins de reliure plus près de chez vous.
