Unknown Spool Box Plays 10.63" Music Roll
By Kevin McElhone

I bought some organette parts from the Bob Minney auction recently.
Amongst these parts is a spool box, with a take-up spool taking paper
about 10-5/8 inches [10.63", 27 cm] wide and all bearing blocks, etc.,
possibly from a player piano or organ or pushup.  I do not want this
part but do not know what is comes from.  I would like 10 UK pounds
for it.

Many thanks,
Kevin McElhone

 [ Kevin can provide photos for identification.  It might be from
 [ a 58-note Story and Clark organ, which played a roll 10.5" wide.
