[ Tom Zook, 54, pumps the twin foot pedals of a 1915 Brinkerhoff
[ player piano in his workshop in downtown Casper, Wyo. (pop.
[ 49,644), testing the inner workings of a musical instrument
[ that once resounded with ragtime classics, religious hymns,
[ Tin Pan Alley tunes and other popular songs of the era.
