FS: Aeolian Duo-Art with 325 Rolls
By Ralph Beamer

For anyone who might be interested, I came across this ad -- my only
interest is as another Duo-Art owner/rebuilder.  (I'd like the rolls!)

Found in:        rec.antiques.marketplace

> Aeolian Duo Art Player Piano, fully restored, includes 325 music rolls,
> $15,000 OBO  (360) 740-0731

  [ Editor's Note:
  [
  [ I called the owner.  His name is Ralph Beamer.  His girlfriend
  [ ran the ad submitted to r.a.m and he said his expectations
  [ for price are much lower than her's  (see below).
  [
  [ Ralpha found the piano in the basement of 100 yr old house
  [ that he bought in Chehalis WA.  The piano, described as
  [ an "upright reproducer, was refinished and internally rebuilt
  [ by Ken Kadwell for $4,400.  Ken says that its a 1926 vintage
  [ from the serial #.  The owner said Ken suggested that it might
  [ bring 9-12k if he's patient.  The owner says he needs 7k to
  [ recover expenses, but he's motivated to sell.
