FS: Instruments From My Collection
By Dave Bowers

I am in the process of offering for sale some instruments from my
collection.  These include:

- Coinola Midget Orchestra with orchestra bells, uses "O" roll,
formerly in the collection of Otto Carlsen; pictured in the book
"Put Another Nickel In."  Description in progress.

- Western Electric cabinet A-roll piano with xylophone and the
tune-selecting Selectra mechanism, ex- Marty and Elise Roenigk.
Unrestored.

- Seeburg Audiophone Jr. early pneumatic jukebox.  Unrestored.

- Mermod Freres 24-1/2-inch interchangeable cylinder box in French
serpentine case, brass trim, with a drawer full of cylinders, as new,
ex- Mark Yaffe Collection by private treaty $65,000.

- National 53-Note calliope, original, restored by Tim Westman, a
showpiece in parades and exhibitions, a show stopper that has caused
a lot of excitement over the years.  With a nice library of "A" rolls
including calliope arrangements.  $13,000 with, if desired, a free
four-wheel parade wagon; $12,000 red Cadillac Eldorado convertible,
not restored, but has been owned by me for nearly 30 years, runs nicely
and looks great; new paint and top $13,000.  Or everything for $23,500.

All above items are f.o.b. New Hampshire.  I can help arrange shipping
for you.

- Engelhardt (St. Johnsville, New York) cabinet A-roll piano with
art glass, etc., now completing a 100-point restoration in the shop
of Reblitz Restorations in Colorado Springs and offered f.o.b. there.

All items offered to prior sale and change without notice.

These are really nice items.

Best wishes,
Dave Bowers
