Seek Recordo Rolls for Pianola in Sydney
By Noel Butler

Six years ago I acquired a pianola from a friend who moved.
Slowly, over the years it has been restored -- quite an education.
I unfortunately started at the hard end as it was an expression
system.  The Pratt-Read unit was done but the Recordo system was
removed as just too hard.  Later, with help it was integrated back
in and works well.

Problem: Though the whole thing is up and going, I have only a few
rolls, thus it's hard to give life to the unit; this is a shame.
If anyone has access to some rolls (especially QRS Recordo), or can
give advice or contacts, I would love to hear from you as it seems
there are few fully functioning such systems around me in Sydney,
Australia, and fewer rolls.

Cheers,
Noel Butler
