Hello and thanks for the welcome message.  You requested that we let
you know how we found out about the Digest.  Recently we picked up a
player piano for our son who's been wanting one for some time.  We have
it at our house at present, and sometime in the future it will be
making it's way to his place.  We're not sure at the moment whether it
will be shipped or he will come for it sometime in the future.  It's a
Lauter Humana (Newark, NJ).  Shortly after picking up that one we found
one at an auction in deplorable condition and got it for a very small
sum.  It's a Gulbransen.  Since our hobby up till now has been antique
telephones, we realized we knew nothing about player pianos and thought
it would be interesting to collect whatever information is available on
Internet.  Your web site was located after doing a search, and we
thought it would be a good place to start.  Both players will need some
restoration, and we want to become better informed before doing
anything.

  Sincerely,

  Janice & Denny Hess
