Seek QRS 915 "Girl of Mine"
By Harlan Zinck

One of my 15-year-old daughter's favorite piano rolls is "Girl of
Mine", QRS Word Roll #915, played by Ted Baxter and Max Kortlander.
It's a pleasant ballad roll but it also features two really charming
dance choruses.  Unfortunately, since it dates from 1919, our first
copy basically self-destructed after only a few plays and I fear that
the second copy, which we've just purchased, may eventually suffer
the same fate.

Does anyone know whether or not this roll has ever been recut and, if
so, where one might purchase a copy?  I'd appreciate any information
anyone has to share!
