Oh yes, I have a player piano. I love it. I grew up adoring the player piano my grandfather restored, and playing his whenever I visited. Finally got my own out in California. Here's a pic: http://www.kelthaven.org/baby/Jan04/2004-01-22.html
The part for the rolls is hidden behind the music Maggie's "reading" (harp music, actually), but you can see the pedals.
That's cartons of piano rolls, not cartons of recordings of player piano. I'll have to find them first, and we don't know quite yet what the transport plan is going to be.
I'll send you the same list I send Laura, though, once I find and inventory the boxes.

We gotta talk, grrl; I've got two cartons of piano rolls from back when WE had a player.

I would *REALLY REALLY REALLY* like to hear some of them again, and make recordings of them being played. I smell a plot hatching.
buk, buk, buk, bKAAA!
