Free:  I have a large lot of Aeolian and QRS player piano rolls from the 1970s and 1980s. These are standard 88-note rolls. Most were purchased right at the QRS factory, which was in Buffalo, NY. Most are in very good shape - they have always been stored inside, never in a garage or attic. A few are well-played and have a few rips and tears. All are playable. You may view them at:
