If your in the Denver area, a store called Antique Center on Broadway has
a dealer who has about 50. I think he's asking 12.00 apiece.  I purchased
a roller organ from him and he threw in a dozen cobs.  I think there may
be different size cobs so perhaps you should specify what size your
machine takes.  Their address is 1235 S Broadway, Denver.  Phone 744-1857
