FS: Ducartist Rolls for Philipps Duca Player
By Peter Coggins

If anybody is interested in the Philipps Duca player that Larry
Broadmoore has for sale (yesterdays MMD), I have 11 rolls for it !

It must be a rare system, I have never seen it mentioned by any other
MMD'ers and have only ever seen one for sale before.  These 11 rolls
might sit here for a long time !!

Peter Coggins

 [ On page 317 of the 'Encyclopedia', author Dave Bowers writes: "The
 [ Duca, Philipps' entry into the reproducing piano field, was produced
 [ from about 1908 to the late 1920s."  Bowers gives no clues about the
 [ workings of the reproducing system.  Anyone know?  -- Robbie
