Allan Stafford & Stafford Nickelodeon Pianos
By Joe Teagarden

I have a business card that Allan Stafford gave me when I ran into him
about a year ago.  I believe it was at the Brimfield, Mass., antique
market.  The card shows his address as P.O.  Box 47, Damascus, PA 18415
Phone: (507) 224-4803.

The card states: "Stafford Nickelodeon Pianos", - Coin operated
nickelodeon pianos & merry-go-round band organs - Sales and service.

I've seen quite a few of his "Stafford Nickelodeons" in the New England
area and have helped a local friend with minor maintenance of one.
His nickelodeon conversions seem to be well made and are characterized
by the "O' roll transport being located in the top portion (easier to
change rolls) and an accordion as one of the melody instruments.
