Playrite Rolls
By Jody Kravitz

The discussions involving the list of roll vendors has raised some interesting issues. I have not completed my research, but it appears that the removal of Playrite of Turloc CA from the list of roll ventors is premature. A friend spoke with an employee at Playrite on Friday and they are still there. Their information is still:

PlayRite Music Rolls, Inc. (7/95)
P.O. Box 1024
Turlock, CA 95380
tel: 209-667-1996
fax: 209-667-8241

I have not been able to contact John Malone yet (owner of the Playrite in Turloc CA), but I am trying. He's been doing business the name of Playrite for a long time and hopefully can tell me what happenned to the Playrite of Milwaukee WI that Rob DeLand references in his message above.

The information we have on vendors, perforators, and the locations of master roll libraries is obviously incomplete (and probably constantly changing). There's plenty of room for research. I'd think it would be fascinating to know the history of individual perforating machines as well as master roll libraries. I'm wouldn't be surprised if there's other vendors we haven't found too. Please keep the reports coming in.
