By Dick Hack

[ Dick Hack sent this notice to folks he knows with Hammond
 [ player organs and approved publishing it also at MMDigest.

Notice to all Aeolian Hammond owners:  I have (finally!) come up with
a proposal to recut the Hammond BA "Aeolian Hammond" rolls.

The timing is now right to do this project: Play-Rite has finished our
last project of 200 Duo-Art rolls (also 12/inch) and now the perforator
is available to do the Hammond rolls.

There will be two sets available.  The first set is 35 rolls, and
represents a good mix of the better music at a reasonable price of
$1085 ($31/roll) for the complete set.

The second set of 55 rolls, in addition, will really make a nice
library of great music for those that want a large variety of music.
This set will be $1705 (also $31/roll).

You may order either set, or both.  The rolls will be cut on high
quality paper, better than the original paper, and include quality
boxes with labels.  The rolls will have labels, but will not have
expression or stop information printed on the rolls.

The selection of rolls on these lists are subject to minor changes if
we are not able to use an original roll (if it is damaged beyond
practical repair or if the wrong roll was in the box when catalogued).
We also reserve the right to substitute music if we determine that the
arrangement on the original roll is not good.

For those that do not know me, references are available.  I have been
doing roll projects for about 15 years, and have handled the recutting
of over 10,000 rolls for 7 different machines.

Terms are 1/2 of the set cost when reserving your set(s).  The balance
and shipping (at $1.50/roll) will be due when the paper, boxes, flanges,
and cores arrive.  We anticipate that rolls will start shipping in
several months.

Please call if you have any questions.  Please make checks out to Hack
Mechanical Music.

Thank you.
