Relative Humidity and the Player Piano
By Tom Sendall 

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hi -- Does anyone have a suggestion about a satisfactory humidity level
for a room with a 1920's player piano?  Mine seems to play better at a
higher level.  I'm keeping mine at 65% humidity at present, but I don't
want to go too high.

Thank you,
Tom Sendall
