Seek Crank & Fingers For Aeolian Push-Up Player
By Jere DeBacker

Hello,  My piano technician, Hank Lea at Colorado Piano Works,
just acquired an absolutely beautiful, and totally original, early
65-note Aeolian push-up player.  The pneumatics and wind motor are
all covered in original leather.  The machine still works and plays
with one foot.

But, two black fingers are broken and the crank to raise and lower it,
to fit up to the keyboard, is missing.   Does anyone have a crank and
a couple of extra fingers?  Telephone Hank Lea at 1-970-669-9277.

Thanks!
