Seek Organette Player Rolls
By Will Albert, forwarded by Terry Smythe

I received the following inquiry which hopefully somebody on MMD might be able to help. This person is not a participant on MMD, so a reply to him with a copy to MMD would be appreciated.

Thanks, Terry Smythe

Subject: Organ Player Rolls

I obtained your address from newsgroup/automatic musical instruments during my search for the following. My neighbor has asked me to find a supplier of organ player rolls per the following description. Perhaps you can help.

The organ is small and hand-cranked and identified by "Gately Mfg. Co." The total length of the roll is approx. 4.5 inches; the flanges are of wood, -- one flange has a pin hole, the other has a slight tubular extension (approx. 0.25 in. long. 0.375 inches in dia.) with a slot cut in said extension. The paper is approx. 3.75 inches long and is punched with round holes approximately 0.125 inches in dia. The diameter of the wooden flanges is approx. 1.5 inches.

Any info you can supply will certainly be appreciated. Thank You
