Seek Rebuilt Electric Motor for Ampico Grand
By Dana Semmes

I wondered if you could help me or perhaps direct me on how or where
we can find a replacement for a burned out motor from a Chickering
baby grand reproducing piano.  I have attached photos of it.   

We had the whole player mechanism rebuilt and then some children
fooled around with it and burned out the motor.  I have been led
to believe that finding a replacement should not be too difficult.
I would appreciate any help you might be able to offer.  My phone
number is 1-240-882-8055, and I live in Potomac, Maryland.

Very truly yours,
Dana Semmes
