FS Free: Bush & Lane Cecilian Player in Maryland
By Howard Hooper

For sale, free: A Bush & Lane Cecilian upright player piano.  The
exterior finish needs to be redone.  It's not scratched, but the
varnish is old now.  When you lift the lid or open the keys it's
shiny.  The tubing needs to be replaced and so does the electric cord.
All the parts are there.  It also has a bench seat.  I was told by one
individual that just wanted some of the parts that the piano was in
fair to good condition.

At http://www.mmdigest.com/Pictures/playerActions.html  you can see
the pictures and write-up that were posted on the web by Mr. Ed Gaida.
This is what the piano player section looks like except mine has an
electric motor that he doesn't talk about.  I think my grandparents
purchased the piano in 1923 or 1924.

If you need additional information please feel free to contact me.
I'm redoing floors in the house so it really needs to go.  Located
in Lanham, Maryland, two miles west of I-495, the Washington Beltway.
