Valve Washers for Aeolian Grand Player Organ
By D. L. Bullock

Roger Wiegand wrote, "I am looking for a source for paper washers,
1-1/4-inch outside diameter, 3/4-inch inside diameter, 0.0035 inch
thickness. These are used under the valve plates on the Aeolian Grand
player reed organ..."

If these are the same blotter paper gaskets that are used in push-up
Pianolas, I think I may have the die for making them out of anything
you want.  I also have a box of the blotter paper that was used on most
pneumatic systems.  It may be the same thickness you want.  If not we
can add another spacer to get it.
