FS: 88-Note Piano Rolls
By James Matheson

Hello to everyone on MMD!  Although it has taken a while, I have
finally managed to sort through the remaining 88-note rolls that
I have on hand and have posted them for sale at my web site.

After a busy weekend, I was able to list about half of the remaining
rolls.  These include rolls by DeLuxe, Melodee, Melody, QRS, and
W. W. Kimball.

A few of the rolls contain classical pieces, but by far the majority
are popular numbers: waltzes, fox trots, marches, even blues.  As
usual, I have priced these rolls affordably since my main goal is to
get them into the hands of people who will appreciate and enjoy them.
I should also note that most of these rolls are in very good condition
and still quite playable, although I am always more than happy to
answer inquiries regarding condition.

As I mentioned, the rolls are listed on the "Equipment" page at my
web site, http://www.farqpro.com/  Please check there to see what's
available, or feel free to contact me via this email address.

As a final note, I also encourage Aeolian Duo-Art and Ampico collectors
and enthusiasts to stop by the site.  In the course of researching the
rolls in this collection, I came across some information that I think
may be of interest and value to fans of reproducing pianos.  I have
compiled that information into an e-book and have posted it with the
piano rolls in the "Equipment For Sale" section.

I'd also like to say thanks again to the MMD for keeping this unique
forum available, and thanks to all for reading this.  I look forward
to hearing from you!

James Matheson
