FS Free: Gulbranson Player Piano in Springfield, VA
By Dale Houser

Hello,  I have an old Gulbranson player piano ( serial 263075, 1926
vintage) that is free to anyone interested in moving it.  The faceplate
decal states "Duo Concerto Gulbranson, E.F. Wilkes and Co Ltd, Sydney,
Australia."  The string plate states "Gulbranson Company, Chicago USA."

The pin block and sound board seem to be in very good condition.
I was originally planning to try to restore it to its full potential
several years ago; however, circumstances changed and I no longer have
need for this piano.

If anyone is interested and would like additional information or some
pictures just send me an email.  I'm hoping someone would like this
piano so I don't have to just junk it.  I really enjoy playing the
piano at times (the player mechanism needs work so it isn't working
now) since it seems to me to have a great sound and has kept its tuning
over long periods of time even while in my unheated garage.  However, I
have two other pianos and I just have no need for this one any longer.
