Pianola and rolls

[Terry Neely]

Dear list,

I have a church that owns a Piano player piano ( the one that is about
the size of a spinet piano). It is in the average poor condition that
one would expect of a piano that has received minimal service over its
life.

They also have a collection of approx. 200 rolls of music ranging from
religious to ragtime. I am told that the rolls have been inspected and
are, with a very few exceptions, in great shape.

I am guessing that the rolls are worth more than the piano. Anyone out
there know anything about these critters? What would be the best way for
the church to maximize its income from the sale of these items?

Thanks in advance for your help          Terry Neely
