Seek Metal Violin Pipes for Coinola Midget
By Bruce Newman

Hi Folks,  I'm restoring a Coinola Midget, Style K, with flute and
metal violin pipes.  Unfortunately the violins are missing.

Apparently the Operators Piano Co. bought enough of these metal
violins that they were able to have them made with custom shortened
toes.  The distance from the bottom of the pipe to the languid (the
conical portion of the pipe) should be about 4-1/2 inches rather than
7-1/2 inches as commonly found on other metal pipes.

I'm looking for a 24-note set, A# to A, as this machine plays Style
"O" rolls.  Does anyone have a spare set by any chance?

Thanks,
Bruce Newman
