FS: Seeburg A Nickelodeon
By Bill Ryan

For Sale: Seeburg A , Best condition with 10 A rolls, refinished.

Hello to all.  We are at last able to be back with you regularly.  Our
thousands and thousands of sheet music pieces are still going strong
and a new catalogue and new web site are only a few weeks away after
Easter.  I have an assigned job for which I would ask Robbie or Jody to
put at the end of one daily digest.

There is a private sale, estate liquidation, of a very very nicely
refinished and rebuilt nickelodeon, a Seeburg -A- 1921 for which we are
asked to accept sealed purchase bids.

The device started its life in Baltimore, MD and in 1972 was completely
refinished in medium oak, restored art glass front, etc., and a switch
was placed under the key checks replacing the coin accumulator and
drop.

The Seeburg will be available in May or June, and is located in upstate
New York.  About all it needs now, as it is coming with _ten_ A-rolls, is
a new loving home and a buyer who will appreciate it.

Please send me a note at <thebackroom@earthlink.net> telling me if you
are interested, and your price range.

The nickelodeon can be retrofitted with a coin accumulator and drop,
and any and all names of responders will be kept secret, so this older
family will not be disturbed.

There is a rare possibility that there will be a Rolmonica with about
14 rolls (cigar size in excellent condition) ready to go also.

If you are looking for sheet music, contact us, and we will do our best
to help you out, with the same promise going for Edison cylinders and
hundreds of player piano rolls. It is a pity that up in this area, such
great instruments, such as the Seeburg, go to the trash heap, and the
other things like the Rolmonica and Play-a-Sax are thrown out. Your
wants in those areas would be appreciated.

I'd like to publicly thank the gentleman who was able to acquire the
Chickering Ampico B with the 100 rolls with it.  We will checking out a
Mason and Hamlin BB during Easter week., so keep in touch.

Bill Ryan
