Seek Music Rolls for Kilgen Player Organ
By Kerry Symes

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Rolls wanted:  I have 1931 Kilgen player pipe organ that I am
restoring.  I believe it to be the Clark Artistouch series by
Roessler Hunholz.  The tracker bar has 100 holes.  Their are 61 note
holes and 24 holes that operate on/off switches for registration.
There are 12 stop registration switches (most switches operate more
than one stop) and 1 chimes switch which are affected by the on/off
holes.   The registration holes are on either end of the note holes.

The Pedal has 12 notes starting at hole 17, the Accompaniment has 17
notes starting at 29, and the Solo has 32 notes starting at 46.  The
organ was seven ranks and was built for a funeral parlor.  I have
expanded it to 17 ranks, but the old player wiring is intact.

I understand that Marc Kaufman has some rolls that may fit this.
I would appreciate any help anyone can give.  My email is
<KSymes900@aol.com>

Thank You,
Kerry Symes
