For sale, free: a Welte Mignon T-100 upright reproducing piano,
free of charge, for rebuilding or for parts. I hope to find a good
home for this rather rare instrument, serial no. 1519, that was
built shortly before World War 1 in Poughkeepsie, New York.
The piano plays only the wide Welte T-100 (Red) rolls. The piano
is complete, the player system was restored over 25 years ago but
now needs it again.
The instrument is located in Shokan, New York (about 100 miles north
of New York City), with easy ground floor access. Inquire for more
details. Links to three photos are below.
