I am currently having a final push, working with renewed interest on
the roll and disc catalogues I have been compiling for 30+ years and
have been making available on Mechanical Music Digest and the Musical
Box Society G.B. website in the Tune Lists section.
I recently found an original tune catalogue for the 14-1/4-inch
(36.2 cm) 44-string Chordephon zither, which is the size most often
found. I list below the missing numbers and wonder if anyone can fill
in some blanks or make any corrections please? The missing numbers are
39 40
41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49
51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
61 62 63 64 66 67 68 69 70
71-99 inclusive
151 152 154 159
161 166
172 173 174 176 178 179 180
189-199 inclusive
326 327
355 357
363 364 368 369 370
371 372 373 375 380
381 382
384-599 inclusive (if issued)
621 622 623 624 625 630
631 632
634-800 inclusive
802 803 & higher.
I have these titles with no number or composer given:
Es Murmeln die Wellen;
Gschichten aus dem Wiener Wald;
Klarinetten Muckel.
I would, of course, also be interested in details of the smaller
11-1/4-inch (28.5 cm) discs and the 20 inch (50.7 cm) 60-note size.
