Repairing Old Piano Rolls
By Charles Davis

Hello MMDers,  A happy and a very musical New Year to all.  I am going
to attempt to repair some older piano rolls that I have.  These are a
mix of QRS, Duo-Art and perhaps other brands.

I was told by some folks when I asked about their value or importance
some time ago that they were not really valuable and no one was very
interested in obtaining them.  I just thought that it might benefit me
to learn how to repair these for some future use.  I have many that
have lost or broken leaders and/or tabs.

Would there be any person(s) out there interested in helping me to
learn how to do this safely?  Also looking for sources of materials as
I have need.  Thanks in advance.
