I have a (believed to be) Rushworth and Dreaper pianola which I need to get rid of. It has had a life including being painted gold at some time. It played well for many years and then slowly started to become harder to get air pressure up. It will play if you are fit. It is not in a good state of repair cosmetically and I would be pleased if someone would just take it away as I cannot be bothered to put it on ebay and face all the stupid comments, and I just do not want to just smash it up or take it to the dump. Someone must want this, I have been told that it is over a hundred years old now, it also comes with about 70 rolls. No stool, “Buyer collects” or should this read “interested parties” collect. Email me if interested. paul.taylor[at]Northampton.ac.uk (use @ instead of [at] in email address)

I have a Brinsmead upright 88-note pianola and a number of rolls. Intending to move house means it must go in next few months - hopefully not to the tip. The case is in poor condition though restorable; the mechanism works but hasn't been used for many years. Sounds good. Problem: The beast is too big to fit through the door, so it will have to be dismantled. Perhaps the guts would be of interest to someone wanting spares. Must be collected if you want it - area Leeds - Manchester (Address: Halifax, West Yorkshire). Will anyone help this poor old pianola to live again?
