Weber Duo-Art Grand Reproducing Player Piano

Description

Vintage Weber Duo-Art Player Grand, serial number 74713, piano atlas shows it was built in 1918. 5' 11.5" long, 58" wide.  88 keys.  Electric only, no foot pump.
Previously restored player mechanism (currently what I would classify as non working).
According to the family I acquired the piano from, the player mechanism was restored about 35 years ago.  When powered up the roll turns and will rewind but the stack does not play the keys - I have not torn it down to see what the issue is....but....based on my 30+ years of experience I think even if a 'simple' fix was found to make it play, it still wouldn't play like one should expect a Duo-Art to play - it needs a full restoration because there's already 35+ years age on everything.
Strings and action appear original. All the keys actually do play manually; however, as old as it is I would recommend planning for a full restoration as the felt is old and hardened and the tuning pins have low torque as is common for an instrument this age.
The cabinet is decent, was refinished several decades ago, some scratches here and there but overall is presentable. Depending on your preferences it may be ok with cleaning, polishing and minor touch up or you may want it refinished.
