When I moved my shop four years ago, losing 600 square feet, a fair
number of player pianos I had been storing for 20 years went to the
great beyond.  I did, however, hold on to some, one of which is a 1914
Autopiano Conservatory model.  It is manual pump with an electric pump
and motor.

I haven't delved into it yet, but particularly confusing are the two
vertical holes on the right side of the tracker bar shown in one of the
attached pictures.  In addition, it is the first player piano I have
run across that has the capability to run on both AC and DC current.

Is anyone familiar with this model, as to what the extra holes are for?
Thanks in advance for any info.

In case I never get around to restoring it, is anyone interested in
purchasing it?
