Napoleon III piano
Of course you will want to sing those Christmas carols around a piano and this one from Antiquiarian traders might be a keeper. This black upright Napoleon III piano with heavy bronze work throughout. This magnificent piece has been completely restored including the piano mechanism and case. Piano is labeled 'MOIRIN AINE PARIS.' circa 1890 and ONLY 37,500.00

We have this one!

Their a collectable Christmas thingy from Hallmark. This one is from about 5 years ago. It plays Jingle Bell rock, Holly Jolly Christmas and Frosty. The snoman pianist moves while the melodies are played. Corny but cute.
