Rarity of Hupfeld and Ampico Rolls
By Bob Fitterman

I have two rolls sitting around and am wondering if they are
particularly uncommon.

One is Ampico 54686-M, "Samson & Delilah Finale Act 1".  I can
Google this and find references to it, but have no idea if it's
a rare or common roll.  The references I find lack the "-M" so I'm 
a bit curious about the significance of the suffix.

The second roll is Hupfeld 50317, Sonata No. 7.  That one doesn't seem
to turn up any place online, which makes we wonder a bit more about
its rarity.

I'd also like to find a good home for them and am not especially
interested in selling them as much as getting them to someone who will
either listen to them or scan them to make them available to others or
do something other than letting them just gather dust.  Suggestions are
welcome.
