I thought it looked like a type of hurdy-gurdy. I'd have to blow the picture
up to see it better. Judy

In the picture at:
http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/images.jsp?artid=215&letter=M&imgid=1273


in the lower left hand section, there are a group of musicians with the
women,  and then someone carrying an  object under his right arm.  It looks
like he is cranking it with his left hand.  Is that some sort of musicial
instrument?
