Rolls for Raffin 20-note Crank-organ
By Brian Thornton

MMDers,  As many know, I acquired Ed Schmidt's perforator and have
spent a year or so bringing it up to date and up to speed.  In the
course of that time, I attended a couple of band organ rallies and
talked to a few Raffin owners who were very interested in a domestic
source of rolls with more American tunes on them.

Ed was planning to cut Raffin rolls at some point and I acquired spools
for both Raffin and Hofbauer organs which he had made up.  I recently
picked up a Raffin organ and so now I can proceed with this project.

I am more interested in supplying new arrangements of American tunes so
I am open to suggestions for tunes and/or thematic layouts.   My hope
is to have a few rolls ready for next summer.  Drop me a line and let
me know what you would like to hear.

Organically,
