Artizan Rollography?
By Mark Chester

Matthew Caulfield has set a new standard in cataloging tune data for
mechanical music rolls with his online catalogs of Wurlitzer 150 and 165
rolls and his list of known 180 rolls.

I am looking for something I have not seen on the Internet: a list
of tune titles for known Artizan 61-key rolls.  One of my favorite organs
at Knoebels plays 61-key Artizan rolls.  Also, pursuant to another tune-
ID project of mine, I am trying to identify some tunes on a Carrousel
Music recording of Allan Stafford's "Lindy" 61-key Artizan organ.

I suppose I could ask Dave Wynn at Knoebels for permission to copy the
titles from the roll boxes behind the Frati organ, but I thought it would
be easier to start by asking whether someone already has some of those
data in digital format and could email it, or if a hard copy, supply a
copy at my expense.  Have such data been compiled?  Does anyone have a
catalog of Artizan rolls, especially 61-key?
