And for some more information.  Google around with that brand name and such.  You might be able to dig up heaps of information about it.

According to this:Bontempi is an Italian musical instrument manufacturer. It is well known for in the past having manufactured plastic Chord Organs, small keyboard-like instruments in which the sound is produced by air being forced over reeds by a small motor. Bontempi also manufactured various electronic keyboards.

In 2007, Bontempi were selling musical instruments aimed at the educational and toy market, including keyboards, guitars, drum kits and various items of tuned percussion.

Bontempi has been manufacturing musical instruments and toys for over 50 years.

I guess it's a plastic Chord Organ.

It's like when I discovered my dad's old Steinberger Bass. From the case, I wouldnt have know it was a bass, but rather, an archery Bow or something.
