FS: Nelson-Wiggen 5X Folding Xylophone & More
By Donna Lanning

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hello,  I am in the process of downsizing my collection.  I have
several Welte reproducing piano rolls and others I would like to sell.
All of them are in excellent condition.  I have some originals, but
mostly recuts.  I have a spreadsheet with more detailed information
upon request.  I no longer have any machines to play them.  I also have
a folding xylophone for a Nelson-Wiggen 5X.

My husband used to rebuild piano actions for his own machines and turn
player pianos into orchestrions among many other talents he possessed
so I also have various piano parts, etc.

I have an old penny arcade-type collection with the best machine, in my
opinion, being a Cail-O-Scope in excellent condition and a phonograph
collection, outside horn as well as inside.  I have a Victor Monarch,
Zonophone, Edison Home and Triumph.  I have a Victor Orthophonic
Credenza (830), Victor 9 table model and a completely unrestored,
untouched, Standard A with about a dozen records.  All of these machines
play and are in very good to excellent condition.  I also have one
cylinder musical box, with zither attachment, 12-1/2-inch cylinder.
I have some Diamond Disc records as well as various other odds and
ends.

I would like to sell everything.  I can send digital photos upon
request but there are so many items it would be best to come and see
them.

My name is Donna Lanning.  My husband was Robert Lanning.  Some
folks might remember him.  He joined MBS in 1968 and belonged to the
Northeast chapter for over ten years.  We were members of MBS many
years ago and he passed away earlier this year.  I live in Central
Virginia.  My daytime phone number is 1-434-825-8260.  My home,
nighttime number is 1-434-984-5350.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
