For those willing to act quickly, I was offered a free Aeolian foot
pump player. It's a 1920s Aeolian, in a mahogany case, located in
Avondale, PA (30 miles southwest of Philadelphia, near PA Route 1).
It's been refinished and looks okay (a couple coats of oil, perhaps).
Veneer is okay. Mechanically, the piano is not bad. No moths or
serious rust. Ivories are very nice. The piano is very clean.
Player mechanism is in good, unrestored condition. Owner says it plays
with the included suction box. The stack is out presently, but not
apart. Owner gets his new piano this Saturday, but is willing to store
this in his garage for a few weeks.
Contact me if you're interested in this one and I'll give you the
information. Act quickly, if you're interested!
