FS: Seeburg "O"-roll Nickelodeon in New York
By Larry Racies

To spare my wife the agita of disposing it after I kick off, I am
reluctantly putting my nickelodeon up for sale.  It was completely
rebuilt from an old Seeburg with an oak case by Barry Kasper who
restrung it and converted it to play an "O" roll with an electric
roll frame.  1/4-inch clear Lucite replaced the windows which
formerly contained stained glass.  It has bass and snare drums,
triangle, cymbal, wood block and xylophone.

It plays beautifully. It comes with a library of about 70 "O" rolls,
all recuts, most of them never have been played.  It's located in
Manhattan, New York City, where a quarter dropped in would start
the music.  I have no idea what it's worth and will accept the best
reasonable offer.
