January Music Sale
By Kevin McElhone

January Music Sale: the following are on offer until the end of
January 2023:

1. New paper rolls for organettes, made by Ed Schmidt before he
retired; about 100 titles are available:

20-note rolls for Celestina, Seraphone and Ariel organettes;
20-note rolls for Bijou Orchestrone/Peerless organette;
22-note rolls for Mignon German Organette.

All organette rolls are now 20 UK pounds each, ready to play,
or 7 UK pounds without a spool.

2. New cobs for Gem/Concert roller organ; I have about 90 cobs that
were made at the end of production by Charlie Moore, and 30 originals.

3. I still have 450 musical box discs up to 27-inch diameter and a few
hundred player piano rolls and organ rolls (including _new_ recuts at
50% off, i.e., below cost) for Aeolian Orchestrelle and Aeolian Grand
Reed Organs to clear. And also a few Wilcox-White rolls.

4. I am down to the last 50 new piano roll boxes, and the box cutters
are now for sale. The box cutters are offered for collection only as
they cut two at a time and so are nearly 5 feet long.

An electronic copy of the Organette Book is available now on the
Musical Box Society website, along with the supplement, at 30 UK pounds
for the pair plus postage: https://www.mbsgb.org.uk/publications/ 

The Disc Musical Box Book, plus 100-page hard-cover supplement (and the
Organette Supplement), are also further reduced in price at this time
and are available from Nancy Fratti in USA.

I will also be reducing my personal collection in 2023; do you have
a 'wanted' list?
