Replicating Nickelodeon Rolls
By Bob Billings

In response to the recent posting, I can read and copy 11-1/4 inch
wide 6/inch and 9/inch nickelodeon rolls.  So far I have done "A",
"G", "M", "O" and "4X" rolls.

My reading process re-creates the original master, which is sometimes
better than the original roll!  I don't copy copies, as they are
usually not accurate enough to re-create the master.  Excepting the
theme-punched rolls, I can also do any of the 9/inch piano rolls.
I can read 65-note piano rolls and punch the paper, but don't have the
spools.  Contact me at <toadhall@sprynet.com> for more information.
