Seeburg Celesta Deluxe Problem
By Steve Grattan

Good day,  I am restoring a Seeburg Celesta Deluxe and am having
problems with tubing.  The previous owner made some drawings, some of
which are correct and some not, and then he passed away.  I received
the instrument in pieces and have figured out most of the problems,
except two or three.

In correspondence with Art Reblitz, he advised that Tom Beckett wrote
an article about his Celesta in the AMICA New Bulletin in December of
1973 (Vol. 11 Nr. 12)  Does anyone have a copy of this article they
could copy and send to me?   The shuttle valves are the main problem;
there are two of them and they were totally disconnected.  Thank you
for any help you are able to give.
