Yiddish 88 Note Player Piano Rolls
By Larry Greenfield

Hi Mr. Lansky--Welcome back from your holiday.  I'm pleased to see the
success of your Book Center.  Would you be interested in adding a player
piano roll section to your Book Center.  I'm working with people on the
Mechanical Musical Digest(rolls@foxtail.com) to try to find more 88 note
rolls and maybe with a lot of luck a working player piano for your Book
Center.  Also, there is a method called a MIDI to play rolls thru a
computer from a CD.  Please give this idea some thought, when you have
some time, and let me know at your convenience(Larry Greenfield, 3200
Santa Monica Ave., Fullerton, CA 92835, 1-714-447-8930; fax
1-714-447-6952; email  musicbox@ix.netcom.com)  Also, QRS piano rolls in
Buffalo, NY, used to produce Yiddish rolls in the 1920s and 1930s, and I
should be receiving a copy of that early catalogue.  Shalom for now!!

Larry Greenfield
