FS: 58-note Organ Rolls
By Ed Gaida

Over the last few weeks I have produced a new catalog of 58-note organ
rolls used on the Aeolian Orchestrelle and other instruments produced
by that firm.

In the past, the holes punched in the paper were often too small to
trigger repetition in the older single valve machines.  That problem
has been solved as new dies were constructed for the perforator using
punches exactly the same size that Aeolian used in their rolls.

Extensive field testing was done on completed rolls mailed to owners
of single valve instruments.  They are unanimous in their praise of
the new results.  That catalog is located at
http://www.dreckhosen.com/grand12.html 

You can also access the catalog at my new web site,
http://www.egaida.com/ 

I had to change the domain name due to gremlins planting files on the
server which resulted in "hits" to the site every four to eight seconds
for files that did not exist.  Just a minor downside to the Internet.

Kindest regards,
Ed Gaida
