For sale or trade: 12,000+ piano rolls, player pianos and other
QRS items. I need to liquidate the contents of my home so I can rent
or sell it. From many years of collecting, I have amassed a large
collection of piano rolls and other mechanical music related items.

There are at least 12,000 piano rolls but there could be as many
as 15,000 (they were counted years ago, but some have been sold).
The largest part of the lot -- approximately 7,000 rolls -- came
from the late Bob Denerson collection.

There are also about 800 Play-Rite rolls (many have never been
played), mostly 88-note but also some Ampico, Duo-Art, and 65-note
pin-end rolls. Most of the rolls are stored in cartons ready to be
loaded into your truck or trailer.

Other items: A.B. Chase 65/88-note foot pumped grand piano
(autographed by Hi Babit at the 2008 AMICA Convention), old QRS
catalogs, other QRS items (see photos in link provided), Dynavoice
keytop player, Melville Clark tiger oak upright player, new Ampico
boxes, QRS Autograph Series boxes (3 sizes), and five disassembled
Chein Pianolodeon toy pianos.

The piano rolls must be sold as _one lot_ for 50 cents each, or
approximately $6,000. Everything else is being sold on a "make
offer" basis. I would also consider a trade for something automotive
related. I will be donating 10% of the proceeds to MMD. Photo link:
