FS: Calliope & Coin Pianos
By Dave Bowers

I am offering for sale some instruments from my collection, including:

1. Western Electric cabinet A-roll piano in quarter-sawn oak case with
xylophone and the tune-selecting Selectra mechanism, ex Marty and Elise
Roenigk.  I have only ever seen a couple of these with the tune selector
mechanism.  Choice unrestored.  $9,200.  Located in the restoration
shop of Tim Westman in Woodsville, New Hampshire.  Easy to pick up.

2. Seeburg Audiophone Jr. early pneumatic jukebox.  Unrestored.  $2,990.
Located in the restoration shop of Tim Westman in Woodsville, NH.  Easy
to pick up.

3. National 53-Note calliope, original, restored by Tim Westman
several years ago (needs some tweaking now), a showpiece in parades and
exhibitions, a show stopper that has caused a lot of excitement over
the years.  After George W. Bush announced his election bid in the
summer of 1999 I was asked to lead his very first campaign parade,
which I did with this outfit, through New Hampshire towns on July 4th
with George W., his guard of Texas Rangers, and wife Laura close behind.
With a nice library of "A" rolls including calliope arrangements.
$13,000 with if desired free four-wheel parade wagon; $12,000 red
Cadillac Eldorado convertible, not restored but has been owned by me
for nearly 30 years, runs nicely and looks great; new paint and top
$13,000.  Or everything for $23,500.  Or make me an offer.  In
Wolfeboro, New Hampshire.

All above items 1-3 f.o.b. New Hampshire.  I can help arrange shipping
for you.

4. Engelhardt (St. Johnsville, New York) cabinet A-roll piano with art
glass, etc., now completing a 100-point restoration in the shop of
Reblitz Restorations in Colorado Springs and offered f.o.b. there.

All items offered to prior sale and change without notice.

These are really nice items.

Best wishes,

Dave Bowers
Wolfeboro, New Hampshire
