Re-Cutting Aeolian 46-note Player Organ Rolls
By Stuart McCaskill

Does anyone know of a roll vendor that could copy/re-cut Aeolian
46-note rolls for me in the USA?  I have given up hope of ever finding
any more originals, on this planet anyway, and I feel my only option
now is to pay to copy my own collection of 55 rolls and offer to trade
and copy music with other collectors who have these rolls.

I have an Aeolian 1500 player organ that I play every day and would
dearly love to find a way to obtain more music for it.  I am hoping
there is someone out there who has the equipment to do this for a price.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.  Please contact --

 [ According to the description at the MMMedia page, the driving
 [ pin in the left flange is formed "D-shape" and the music roll
 [ is punched with "large square holes" at 5 holes per inch.  See
