Inductors for the tone generators?

I think they're individual tunable transformers like in tube tuners. I think they are tuned for each note. Not sure how or why this works, this was my guess having scrapped a few pieces of organ guts myself. I've not seen or heard any use for them in DIY audio as we know it, let me know if you find a use.

That would make sense as to why they have letters on them--representative of notes! :scratch2:

I can't see the pics but from the description I'd agree with Tom, a tunable inductor for an RLC oscillator circuit. The same thing is (was) used in radios for the IF oscillator.

Them's hazzamarazzers.

Alas, nobody can fix my workplace net nanny. If mama don't like it, it don't show up. :sigh:
