'Rebuilding the Player Piano'
By Al Pebworth

I found this item on eBay to be very interesting: a copy of Larry
Givens book, "Rebuilding the Player Piano".  And to think that I
loaned out my copy and never got it back!  It's eBay item 9481205
(Ends 04/03/98 20:30:50 PST).

  'REBUILDING THE PLAYER PIANO,' by Larry Givens, copyright 1963.
  Hard cover, 164 pages, no dust jacket.  A renowned classic,
  this was first book that made "a significant attempt to provide
  the basic information whereby any person with a moderate amount
  of mechanical ability can bring a player piano back to life."
  Also covers reproducing pianos, nickelodeons, and reed organs.
  Condition Very Good (some page smudging).  Winner pays shipping.

Present bid is $58.77.  The address to view (or bid?) is
