For Sale on the Internet Items
By David Dewey

The past two listings of For Sale items includes a few gems,
from Oregon to the East Coast, and even Florida.  See
http://www.mmdigest.com/ForSaleOnTheInternet.html 

In Mesquite, TX, is a 1925 Ampico catalog for $5.

In Enon Valley, PA, for $200 a Kimball Grand, looks about 5'6" or so,
untouched.

A couple of Gulbransens that "still play": one in Titusville, FL, for
$350 with ~30 rolls, upright (no photos); the other is in Ballston Spa,
NY, for $895, including 70 rolls and mandolin rail.

In Orlando, FL, must move, best offer: Bond-Packard with some rolls
and bench.  Works; moving, must sell.

In Vancouver, OR, a Cable Euphona for $900, "completely restored inner
workings" including hundreds of rolls including Disney and Christmas.

In Eugene, OR, $995, plain style, but quarter-cut oak upright, "in
excellent condition [including] about 100 rolls. ... It is very heavy
and you will need to come pick it up with helpers."  Uh, yeah, most
players are heavy -- free hernia with each move.  (Yes, I did get one
moving my Recordo.  No, I don't move pianos anymore.)

In Salem, OR, $150, Stanley & Sons, plain case, very light refinished
wood, appears to be Simplex player.  "Player needs work."

In Rochester, NY, area, free, upright Irvington, Reprotone Story &
Clark player unit with 13 rolls (hope you're not superstitious).

In Tri-Cities, TN, $100; Story & Clark upright player, no other info.
Case style suggests mid-teens, with bench.

In Galena, KS, no price: Haddorff upright player, light finished,
somewhat ornate case, refinished.  "Works great and includes several
music scrolls."  Store sale.

In Tonawanda, NY, $2550 (dealer) Wurlitzer very small grand with an
"Apollo" reproducer mechanism, ornate legs and trim, matching bench.
With many rolls.

In Syracuse, NY, $900; Weber-Duo Art 5' 3" grand needing full
restoration, but very ornately-grained beautiful wood case.

Also in Syracuse, NY, $100: Cable & Sons, New York, upright with a
Standard "Artist-Record action - Is specifically constructed to play
any make of reproducing or regular music roll with transposer lever at
normal position", reportedly works.

And lastly, in Pittsburg, $200, a Kimball small grand  (5'?) with
(I think) a Welte player; unusual bench, single legs.

Hope you find something you "need."  (Need?  Need isn't the question!)
