Unknown "A" Roll With "Has Anybody Seen My Gal"
By Matthew Caulfield

The New York Museum of Transportation in Rush, New York, has a calliope
and 21 Clark 'A' rolls.  All of the rolls but one have numbers and
labels, although museum staff don't know music rolls well enough to say
whether any of the 21 are unique or not.

The museum would like help in identifying the roll number and the
unknown tunes on it.  The ones identified so far are all from 1925.
Here are the tunes identified:

 1. Has Anybody Seen My Gal
 2. Show Me The Way To Go Home
 3. Rock-A-Bye Baby (by Irving Berlin)
 4.
 5.
 6. That Certain Party
 7.
 8. Then I'll Be Happy
 9.
10. I'm Sitting On Top Of The World
