Passing of Ira Malek, Player Piano Collector
By Vincent Morgan

Our dear friend, Ira Malek, passed away on September 22nd at 96 years
of age. He loved cars and player pianos. Now his daughter is in charge
of finding homes for 25 pianos, thousands of parts and more tools than
we can count. These are currently stored in Ira's house in Sheepshead
Bay, Brooklyn, New York.

If you are interested in rescuing any of these items please contact
Ira's daughter, Linda Jensen, at 978-502-5552 to set up an appointment.
