New Player Piano Christmas Ornament by Hallmark
By Joyce Brite

For those of you who like to collect mechanical music Christmas
ornaments, Hallmark has issued a new one this year.  The designers
certainly put some research and thought into this ornament.

For starters, there are six tunes instead of the usual three and the
arrangements are closer to player piano-style arrangements than other
musical ornaments.  (And when you get to the fifth and sixth tunes,
you will see that the designers had a sense of humor).  The simulated
piano roll rotates and the keys light up in a display coordinated with
the music.  But best of all, the pedals of this tiny player piano go
back and forth, as if an invisible pumper were pumping the pedals.

It's a nice addition to your collection or makes a great gift.
