Value of 1903 Duo-Art 65/88 Vorsetzer
By David Sharpe

In the 080606 MMDigest William Boulton mentions a Duo-Art 65/88
Vorsetzer.  Is it really a Duo-Art?  Or is it an Aeolian Pianola,
possibly Themodist?  I have never heard of a Duo-Art Vorsetzer except
for fairly recent ones built by collectors.  1903 sounds a little early
for a Duo-Art.

If it is truly a Duo-Art, could he give the list more information and
perhaps provide some pictures?  Does it have an electric motor for the
pump?  I assume the single tracker bar has two rows of holes, one for
65- and one for 88-note rolls.
