Bell Player Piano
By Jeffrey Borinsky

Mark Williamson enquired about a Bell player piano.  From the
description it looks as if that Bell piano has a Higel player action --
generally a good system unless you have the all metal version (quite
rare and extremely heavy) and it's suffering from the afflictions of
pot metal.  The big clue is that the re-roll lever is in the spool box
rather than on the key slip.

I'll leave it to the experts to comment on the piano.
