65-Note Rolls
By D. L. Bullock

Yes, there are many fine 65 note rolls. Many early ragtime rolls are out
there.  There is also an extensive selection of classical music and other
sleepy popular pre-1910 rolls as well. I seem to find mostly the sleepy
things but there is always a gem to be found from time to time.

D. L. Bullock   Piano world   St. Louis

 [ Fans generally agree that the finest arrangements of the songs of
 [ the 'Ragtime Era' appeared first on 65n rolls, and were so popular
 [ that they were re-issued as 88-note rolls when that scale was
 [ adopted by the industry.  Many of these same fine early arrangements
 [ appeared also on contemporary nickelodeon rolls.   -- Robbie
