Lost Piano Roll Found in Spool Box
By Luke Myers

Finding a Lost Roll Is Easier Said Than Done

Well, after two times of "thoroughly" (at least to me) going through my
roll collection of 150+ rolls, I finally found the roll I was looking
for (and had wanted to play), "Reaching For the Moon."  I had looked
through my "most important" roll shelf, where my most often played
rolls are kept, but had apparently missed that particular roll, or
thought it was on a different shelf.  I kicked myself mentally for
being so silly in not doing a more thorough and slow search at first.

I'm sure I am not the only one to think they have searched _everywhere_
and then at long last, find the roll loaded right smack in the spoolbox!

"I was looking for Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue, but it turned out to be
Five Foot Three, Eyes For Me."
