1915 Apollo Player Piano
By Cheri Pierson Yecke

Hello,  We have a 1915 Apollo player piano.  The insides were restored
six years ago, all tubing replaced.  Our kids are gone now and we are
moving to a smaller home and are considering selling this piano, but it
won't be easy!  It has had only two owners in 83 years.

How do we get an estimate?  Are there books that might help us?  The
finish is "alligatored" but unblemished.  It has been electrified, but
can be played manually or electrically and the motor is completely
hidden.  If you have any advice, we would appreciate it.

Sincerely,

Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Yecke
