Visuola Practice Keyboard
By Jeff Taylor

I have a Visuola practice keyboard originally owned and used by
my grandmother back in the 1920s.  She was a piano teacher and
I acquired this back in the 1970s after her passing.

It is in very good original condition for its age.  The hand strap
is missing, and five of the plastic inserts on the lighted notes at
the far right are gone, otherwise it's complete.  I've researched
this device and the history of it is intriguing.

Are there collectors of these devices?  How many are left in this
condition?  Is there any value to this device, and what contact
information might you have to others having information on this
rare educational aid?  Looking forward to your reply.  Thank you.

Regards,
