1925 Super-Simplex Player Action Advert
By Gabe Della Fave

Hi fellow MMD members,  Attached is a scan of a trade advertisement
for the 1925 Super-Simplex Player Action.

In my opinion, this is one of the most expressive, responsive, and
logically designed player actions ever made.  It still has relevance
today when considering future player action designs.  I speak from
personal experience.

 [ Instead of inside a piano, the photo shows the player action
 [ installed upon a lightweight open frame, for demonstration at piano
 [ trade shows, I'd guess.  Thanks, Gabe, I'll place the image tomorrow
