I have just bought a large house near to Preston with the following
items in the downstairs rooms.  (There are four players in the kitchen
and no, its not a big kitchen!)   As we will be undertaking a lot of
work in the house, I need to empty it soon and would like to sell them
off cheap, cheap, cheap!

 1. Winklemann grand ~6' in black, new strings and player action
   almost completed.
 2. Brinsmead grand ~6' in mahogany, unrestored but was working.

Upright players, 88-note

 3. Scheidmeyer in black, fantastic sound. Restoration started,
    only 2 or 3 keys not working.
 4. Steck full original electric Duo-Art, working.
 5. Steck full original electric Duo-Art, unrestored.
