Seek J. Chein PianoLodeon Rolls
By Wayne Tougher

I have been collecting rolls for the J. Chein toy player piano for
a couple of years now and only have accumulated about half of them.
The ones that are posted on eBay are all the same common titles, and
usually are in rather poor condition, but I have gotten a few from
that venue.

I have had several readers of MMD contact me with rolls and even
another piano and have taken them up on their offers.  I want to thank
those that have responded and to ask here in this posting if there is
anyone out there that might have rolls or rolls and a J. Chein piano
that they would consider selling.

I have accumulated three pianos: the original one that was a Christmas
gift to my wife when she was a kid (a very long time ago), and two that
I purchased to get the rolls that were with them.  I was able to almost
make one good one out of the two that I purchased.  I still need a few
parts and pieces to get that one up to snuff.

If there is anyone that has one of these little pianos working or not
and would like to dispose of it I am interested.  Please contact me by
email at <wan1146@aol.com>.  I am not in the music or antique business.
I am collecting these as a hobby for my family's enjoyment.  Thank you
again to those that have responded and those that I hope will from this
posting.
