Copying Adler Fortuna 26-inch or 65.5 cm Discs
By Kevin McElhone

I am aware that there is a shortage of discs for the large Fortuna
26 inch (or 65.5 cm) disc musical box which plays size "Z" discs with
the reed organ, drum and triangle.

Here is a list of the discs that I could borrow to get copied here in
the UK for the Fortuna machine.  The discs marked with an asterisk (*)
have already been scanned in.

I would only be prepared to do this if someone else with a machine
would also lend their discs so we could all get some extra titles made.

  6001 Blue Violets Mazurka
  6005 Donauwellen Waltz
  6027 Lohengrin Wedding March
* 6029 Faust Waltz
  6050 Tannhauser Entry March
  6084 Champagne Galop
  6106 (unclear') Blue Danube Waltz
* 6129 Washington Post March
  6147 Cavalleria Rusticana
  6192 ? (cannot read -- does anyone know what this title is?)
  ???? When the ... Softly (cannot read)

Please send me your lists of titles and I will answer in, say, two weeks
when I know if this project has any interest or not.

Many thanks,
