One of my very observant music roll customers has brought to my
attention that one of the Duo-Art rolls on my current music roll
auction is not in the Charles Davis Smith rollography, "Catalog
of Duo-Art Piano Rolls". See under Duo-Art rolls, lot number 134,
at http://home.earthlink.net/~rollertunes/
I went and pulled the roll and the Smith catalog and can confirm that
it is not listed in the catalog. If you have this catalog in your
collection, you may add this to the book. I believe that Charles knew
there was a roll, but did not know what it was. If you go to page 206
in the catalog, it does list roll number 10487x. You can now add the
full information as listed on the roll. My roll has the following
information:
SONG ROLL, 104876, MOTHER MACHREE, Copyrighted 1912, M. Witmark
& Sons, Olcott & Ball, Arr. and Played by Frank Banta, 1.50
Musically
Larry Norman, from the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia
