Old Player Piano At Falls Mill Museum

November 10, 2009

in Just For Fun

Sunday afternoon we played hooky and went over to Falls Mill Operating Water-Powered Grain Mill and Museum in Belvidere, Tennessee.

They had an old player piano, a 1929 Aeolian player piano to be exact.  It had been converted into a nickelodeon, so they make money from people wanting to listen to it.

I’ve always been fascinated with player pianos, so of course I wanted to hear it play. The Farmer got some change, and

“Put another nickel in
In the nickelodeon
All I want is lovin’ you
And music! music! music!”

.
Actually, it costs a quarter these days. But isn’t it fun!?!
