"The Entertainer" on Ampico Roll
By Marvin Polan

I have an Ampico roll #30013 that has The "Entertainer" and "Solace"
by Scott Joplin.  The label says "FA Player Roll Company, PO Box 3194,
Seattle, WA".

The credits are listed to William Flynt, who is still alive and living
in Texas.  I met him a few years ago and discussed other rolls that he
had made.  These were cut by hand by him on his kitchen table, including
the coding for the expression.

I don't know if this roll is still available but if I can be of any
help (other than selling it) contact me.
