Steinway at Asa Packer Mansion in Pennsylvania
By Eric Stott

The Steinway piano at the Asa Packer Mansion has no Duo-Art player;
I think it is a salon-length grand from the late 19th century.

There is, of course, the Welte orchestrion, but the tour guides keep
looking at the dealer's prominent name on the facade and calling it
a "Peters Orchestrion".  The only other musical device I recall is
a Victor Victrola XX.
