Collen-Broadway Pneumatic Player Piano Action
By Francoise Dussour
Hallo MMD friends and player piano fans! Can you help me? I search
for informations, date, and maker about a pneumatic piano made by
J. Broadwood & Sons in London. It is an 88-note player and the paper
rolls are 285 mm wide. The pneumatic system (very interesting) is
made by Collen-Broadway, patent 327512. I have attached files with
some pictures. Thanks for informations.
Best regards from Mirecourt (France)
