I am sure many people have viewed the video, "Visit to QRS Music Roll
Factory", that comes up on YouTube when you type "QRS Music Rolls" into
the search box. As I write this there have been over 98,000 people
visit the site to view the video.
Two videos made in recent times, dated 2013, show a whole different
picture of the once very busy factory. The presentation is in two
parts and each of them have less than 230 "hits".
A quick call to Seneca, Pennsylvania, confirmed that there is one
full-time employee at the facility. The links are below. In some
ways it is sad but a sign of the times.
