MOVING JUNE 30 -- MUST SELL!
I will be moving in July and won't have room for all my toys. I must part with several nice pieces plus odds 'n' ends I've been saving for years andprobably won't need 'til after I sell them!
AMPICO Baby Grand - Franklin piano cerca 1926. Older restoration: Nice action, plays well. Neoprene tubing. Light mahog cabinet in nice condition. Art deco style with graceful, bowed legs. Needs touch-up on some corners, if you're a perfectionist. Boxes of rolls go with it. I have owned this piano for about fifteen years.
WURLITZER 44 key Pianino - cerca 1910 - 1915. Also older restoration but plays well and looks nice. Original oval, beveled glass in front, cabinet in nice condition.
