Player Piano in Movie "Mogambo"
By Charles Schubert

On Sunday, August 25th, I was watching the 1953 movie "Mogambo",
staring Clark Cable and Ava Gardner, and in several scenes they were
playing a player piano.  You could see the person pumping, however
I could not see if the keys were moving or the roll moving.  There
was not a good enough close-up for me to determine the make.  Does
anyone have any info regarding this?  Thanks in advance!
