Seek Duo-Art Upright for Restoration
By Louis Waldman

I am hoping to locate an affordable Duo-Art upright reproducing piano,
in unrestored condition, for a rebuilding project.  Located in Texas,
I'd be willing to have it shipped from just about anywhere in the
Continental US or Canada.

Any marque of Duo-Art piano (Steinway, Weber, Steck, Stroud, Aeolian)
will be fine, working or not, just as long as all the parts of the
mechanism are present, and as long as it's a "full" Duo-Art, including
the two accordion bellows on the expression box (under the keyboard,
top left end) and both Accompaniment and Theme sections.

Either the American version with rotary pump/electric motor or the
British-made pedal-electric style would be fine (though I doubt there
are many pedal-electrics on my side of the Atlantic?).

Many thanks,
