Rebuilding an Early Apollophone Player Action
By Diane deTar
I'm in the middle of rebuilding an Apollo-Phone. It has an archaic
valve system on it and the pouches are small pneumatics. My question
is about the end result. Has anyone ever pumped one of these players
after rebuilding it?
The customer wants this to pump very easily (naturally). Not ever
having rebuilt one that was this early and not motorized, I'm having
my doubts.
