Mermod Freres Interchangeable Cylinder Tune Lists
By Reg Smith

I am trying to identify several tunes on a series of Mermod Freres
interchangeable cylinders for their "Ideal Soprano" models (14-1/2"
cylinder, 6 tunes).  I have a Herren Bros. catalog from 1895-1896
season and Jacot & Son catalog for 1893-1894, which list some of these
cylinders, but neither show the cylinder numbers I have.

If anyone out there has a Mermod Freres interchangeable cylinder music
box which plays this size cylinder, could you please get in touch with
me if you know the tune titles.

Thank you all in advance.
