At a recent auction where I ended up buying a couple of 88 note players
and a pump organ, a lady asked me if I knew anything about players.  When
I told her that I rebuilt them as a hobby she asked if I would look at
one she bought in Texas and had shipped to Ohio.  I said I would be happy
too,  but if she needed it worked on immediately I would have to refer
her, as my hobby time is very limited right now.  Then she said she just
wanted someone to take a look and tell her how big a job it was going to
be, which will work fine for me.  

Now finally I am getting to the reason for this posting.  Her last
comment was then she wondered how unique her piano was because it had a
built in Victrola.  This woke me up very fast.  I remember hearing a
little about pianos with Victrolas but have never seen one.  Can anyone
give me any words of advice or information about what I might be getting
into?  Thanks in advance,
