Foster and Co. Player Piano Parts
By George Cowan

Hello, I am reaching into a field I know very little about, that is,
antique player piano parts.  I am writing this to reach out to folks
that would know more than I.

I bought an old Foster and Co. player piano with the intention of
gutting it to use the shell for a digital piano.  I recently removed
the keys, action and strings.  The mechanical player action was removed
before I obtained the piano but I have all the parts associated with
the action.

It would seem to be foolish to send the parts to a landfill.  I'm not
looking to reap a profit, but am looking for a path to reach out to
people that may have a use for said parts.

Am I wasting my time or would I expect that someone out there might
want this stuff?  Can anyone advise me on this?

Thank you.

George Cowan
