FS: Style OS Music Rolls
By Ed Gaida

I have for sale one lot of 21 Style OS or "Organ Service" rolls
perforated by the Columbia Music Roll Company and the Capitol Music
Roll Company.  They are single selections spooled on standard 88-note
spools.

All musical selections are of a religious nature.  The rolls came from
a funeral home -- more interesting than the music are the notations on
the bottom inside of the boxes.  Someone carefully typed instructions
for the "organist" as to how each song was to be played, i.e., tempo,
number of verses, etc.

Rolls are sold as a lot only and more details can be found at
http://www.dreckhosen.com/osrolls.html 

This is a first come first served sale and I will accept PayPal only
for this one.
