FS: Player Pianos and Organs in Naples, Florida
By William Edgerton

I'm closing things down so these instruments are available:

1. Aeolian Orchestrelle Style W, in Circassian walnut case, in superb
original condition, matching bench. Plays weakly but needs restoration.
With 428 Aeolian Grand rolls carefully acquired over 50 years, including
76 show selections and 74 waltzes plus many other desirable rolls.
Priced at $10 a roll, no charge for the organ!

2. 1926 Knabe Ampico grand, fancy single leg Queen Anne case restored
to like new condition, matching bench and custom-made piano board for
moving, including 895 mostly classical rolls including all Chopin rolls
made by Ampico except two, and some rarities. A list of the rolls is
available on request. Priced at $10 per roll and $1,050 for the piano,
a total of $10,000.

3. A replica Seeburg KT Special with 12 multi-tune G rolls, in very
good cosmetic and playing condition. Price $9,000.

4. An Orpheus miniature mechanical piano playing 13-inch cardboard
discs, with 12 discs, beautiful cosmetically but one note needs work,
and a non-matching low table to bring the instrument up to waist
level. The last one I saw sold at Breker for $2,600. This one is priced
at $1,300.

All instruments are located in Naples, Florida. Pictures or more
information available on request.
