Western Electric Pouch Material
By Steve Grattan

I have a Western Electric orchestrion in my shop.  My customer
rebuilt it himself about 40 years ago.   He used Perflex pouches with
white glue; of course, the pouches disintegrated.  I am removing the
white glue and am going to re-pouch the stack.

Does anyone know what the original pouch material was? I do not want
to do this twice!

Also are there any upper or lower doors and stained glass sitting
around for this machine?  Thanks you for any and all advice!
