Race Horse Piano
By Dave Fowler

I was curious to know if anyone can help me find some information.
I'm going out to look at a Race Horse Piano on Tuesday and was curious
to know if there were any other manufacturers of such a thing other than
Mills Novelty Co.  The current owner could not give me much of a descrip-
tion or a name from it, but from the description I have to assume that
it's the Mills machine.

That being assumed (unless otherwise advised by any one or more of you
good people), I wanted to know if there is any literature available for
this unit.  It would, in my estimation, be a bear of a project without
something in the way of an owner's or technician's manual -- or better
still (if the gods are with us) -- a manual on the restoration of such
an item.  I anxiously await any and all replies.

Thanks, Dave Fowler
