Darrell,

A primary source for Duo-Art Rolls is Keystone Music Roll Company, P.O. Box 650, Bethlehem, PA, USA, ph: 1-800-367-8259. Doug Henderson, Artcraft Music Rolls in Wiscassett, Maine, frequently has Duo-Art rolls, mostly new arrangements. There may be other producers that I can't think of at the moment. You might also try some of the music roll auctions as they frequently carry Duo-Art rolls. In particular, you might want to get on QRS Old Music Roll Auction mailing list. They generally have 4-5 mail auctions per year and include 20-30 old Duo-Art rolls. Contact QRS and ask for Dan Wilke. He operates the QRS auction.

I haven't seen a Playright catalog in a long time. I know they are spending a lot of their time cutting rolls on contract from people with roll cutting projects, etc. They may still offer rolls of their own but I am not sure. Maybe some else on the list can elucidate.

Hope this helps.

Bob Conant
