Ah, thanks for that Jumper. I bought prints of four of these plates years ago from Ted, and it’s nice to have the whole book to parse. Don’t know if it’d be cheaper to attempt to print the thing myself or buy the reissue. Acrobat Pro keeps crashing on me while I try to read the thing, too. 
Ferguson’s Egan set is on pg. 376 of the PDF (252 in the book), with this description:
The large set, with no fewer than twenty-seven
keys on it, is said to have been a presentation by
late Queen Victoria to one Ferguson, a blind piper,
who played in and out of the large hotels in Dublin
in the early part of last century. Such a Pipe would
cost anything from ;^30 to ;^5o and upwards, and
it came to be known as the Irish Organ. When
played on as an organ, the chanter was put out of
use by having the neck of the bag twisted tightly,
and the piper devoted both hands to the keys of
the regulators.
What, no way of holding the stop key down?
Glen’s collection for the great highland bagpipe is also at the Archive, with this nice plate on pg 4:
Brilliant stuff guys! Thanks for these links!
