Seek B.A.B. Rolls for 61-key Artizan Band Organ
By David Wynn

We are very interested in any recutting projects involving 61-key
B.A.B. Artizan rolls.  We play them on our Frati band organ (an Artizan
conversion from the 1920s) and, yes, it is really 115 years old!

I have old Wurdeman recuts on one side, and I _try_ to play Roger
Morrison recuts on the other, but they can be really tricky because of
the paper used.  And you know how long its been since the last Wurdeman
recuts were available!

What's left?  Conversion to 150 Wurlitzer (but we already have too
many Wurltizers!), or MIDI control (not very original looking since
this organ is displayed at the carousel as well as used).  I really
want some good quality recuts of 61-key format.  Help!
