1920’s National 53 Note Model B

Special Chrome Plated - Serial No. 1000 !!!

 

53 note Nationals are scarce, but here is serial number 1000! Apparently, the National Calliope Co. decided this company milestone deserved a special treatment, so they chrome plated all of the whistles, brass trim and even the nameplates!

 

This instrument is complete and the whistles sound and look good. It is playable via the keyboard. The cabinet is in need of a cosmetic restoration. The automatic play appears complete and was restored sometime in the fairly recent past. It is not currently playing automatically, but the roll frame does turn via the windmotor and all gears look good.            

              SOLD

As is before restoration: $8,900.00 FOB Donnellson, IA          DON’T WAIT! Restoration scheduled soon!

Restored: $17,900.00 FOB Donnellson, IA.  See photos below.
