FS: Hofbauer 40er Self-playing Accordion
By William Edgerton

For sale: a Hofbauer 40er self-playing accordion.  You provide the
wind and it provides the music.  Or, if you don't want to squeeze it,
hook it up to a wind source and you're in business.

Hofbauer stopped production of this instrument but continues to sell
music for it.  In excellent cosmetic and playing condition, recently
checked over by restorer Dick Hack in Annapolis which is now where the
instrument is located.  Comes with four electronic cassettes containing
about 38 selections, mostly European waltzes and marches, plus a power
supply to recharge the battery.

The original price about 10 years ago was $5,900.  Buy it for $1,900,
to settle an estate.  Call Bill Edgerton at 1-203-857-0240, or Dick
Hack at 1-410-757-2965
