Aeolian Master Rolls by Clyde Ridge
By Andrew Koledin
Mr. Tuttle referred me to your website. I have two odd music rolls;
both have continuous round holes along both sides, and have many
correction marks on the paper. I am guessing it is a hand-made rough
draft roll. On one roll is the number 4123, but no title. They are
Aeolian rolls.
A third roll has a message written on it: "To Mary with Best regards,
Clyde Ridge". Might this unmarked roll also be one of his?
