Seek Recutting "The Sanctuary" by Josef Hofmann
By Thomas Binnall

Duo-Art roll 6513, "The Sanctuary", played by Josef Hofmann, uses
damper half-pedaling which produces a rapid but not total decay
of notes just previously played. Any copies I have encountered have
been mistakenly altered to eliminate the half-pedaling by joining
the damper perforations together.

I have an original copy which begs to be re-cut properly.
