Leonard and Co. Pedal Player Piano
By Tim Lynch
A friend of mine who wants to obtain a player to rebuild has located
a Leonard and Co. piano manufactured in Philadelphia. The numbers he
sent me include patent references dated from 1914 to 1918 and the number
122601 which may or may not be the serial number. He thinks that the
player mechanism is complete and repairable.
I don't have access to a Piano Atlas. Can anyone give me an estimate
of the probable quality level of this piano and a guess at the type of
player action that it contains? If this is a low grade piano or the
player action is likely to be a first time rebuilder's nightmare, I will
warn him away from it. Thanks for any information that you may be able
to provide.
