AMICA Bulletin May-June 2021 Issue Published
By Glenn Thomas

The AMICA Bulletin's May-June 2021 edition has been printed and will
shortly arrive in subscriber's mailboxes. Email subscribers received
their copy last week.

The lead story ensemble celebrates John Malone's Play-Rite Music's
60 years perforating music rolls of all kinds -- and still going!
Matt Jaro's Nickel Notes opens with the remarkable history in words
and pictures. Then, Paul Johnson recounts how the venerable Ray Siou
worked with Malone to produce hundreds of nickelodeon rolls over 20
years. Finally, still another article shows how Play-Rite perforates
a band organ roll.

But wait, there's much more! Several additional lead-quality feature
stories are included. Serious piano roll collectors will enjoy relating
to Marc Sachnoff's Confessions of an Inveterate Piano Roll Collector.

Glenn Thomas and Tim Westman tell the story of The Resurrection and
Restoration of the Wurlitzer PianOrchestra.

Do you remember the museum in Harolds Club, Reno, Nevada? Sharon Taylor
shares historical pictures and the story of her husband Greg, curator,
and Mechanical Music Master of the collection for nearly its entire life.

Other articles and reviews fill out a remarkable issue.
