During my convalescence a very nice Ampico B Chickering 1926 Serial #
148xxx was brought to my attention. The instrument has had its finish
stripped in preparation for a refinishing of the cabinet. The fallboard
was not touched. The older couple who own this instrument are retiring
to a small condominium which will not accommodate this 5/4" Chickering
Ampico B. It will need to be rebuilt, but all is complete and in fine
shape for this. There is no Ampichron with this B, and there will be
at least 100 large Ampico rolls (and a selection of Angelus rolls too)
that must be sold separately. These are like new. Any and all who are
interested , the instrument in located far up in upstate New York, and
is just a "sweetheart". If you want to tender an offer on purchase and
removal, please contact me privately for this sale as the old couple are
not on the Internet. The piano has not been turned on electrically in
at least 20 years, but is a star furniture attraction at this time.
My address here is flix@cellone.com
Please tender an offer or question at your convenience, and I will
answer all questions. Thank you again for your consideration.
