For sale: 12,000+ piano rolls, player pianos and other QRS items for
sale (or trade). I need to liquidate the contents of my home so I can
rent it 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 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) are from the
collection of the late Bob Denerson. There are also about 800 Play-Rite
rolls (many have never been played). Mostly 88-note, but 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:

- an A.B. Chase 65/88-note foot-pumped player grand piano,
autographed by Hi Babit at the 2008 AMICA Convention,
- old QRS catalogs,
- other QRS items (see photos in the links provided below),
- two custom-made piano roll cabinets,
- a 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
(approximately $6,000). Everything else is being sold on a "make offer"
basis. The photos are just a small sample of what is available.
I would also consider a trade for something automotive related.

I will be donating 10% of the proceeds to MMD.
