FS: Ampico Rolls
By William Edgerton

I have for sale, to help settle a local estate, the following Ampico
rolls.  Almost all of the recuts were never played and many still
have their rubber bands.  These rolls have not been picked over, and
there may be one or two duplicates.  Some of the rolls were in boxes
on a damp surface and that can be seen at the back end of the roll.
No rolls themselves were affected; each one was checked.  The recuts
are almost entirely Powell and Klavier and there are some unusual
selections here.

The rolls will be sold only in the following groups -- no choices of
selections can be made:

$200  66 Small square box recuts, primarily classical
$350  87 Large box recuts, mostly classical (plus 4 with bad boxes)
$360  18 1930s-40s 3- or 4-tune popular original "B" rolls,
         bold-type labels
 $50  10 original "B" rolls, bold-type labels
$160  51 large original rolls, mostly classical (plus 13 unboxed)
$300  94 Smaller original rolls, mostly popular
 $45  13 Small square box original rolls, mostly popular
 $30   6 Christmas rolls (one duplicate)
 $60   2 Jumbo recuts: show tunes #100215 & Fox Trots #100785
 $40   1 Flight of the Bumblebee, original roll, replacement box,
         exceedingly scarce and does not recut well

Take the lot for $1,400.

If you are near New York City you can pick them up.  Otherwise,
I will take the rolls to the nearest UPS Store for packing and
shipping and quote those charges.  If you wish USPS Media Mail
I will quote a packing charge.

Prefer checks or money orders over PayPal.  The first caller who
commits to a purchase will get the rolls and will have 5 days for
a check to arrive.  The name of one back-up buyer will be held
should the original buyer not send a check, and the backup buyer
will be contacted.
