Greetings folks.

I just obtained the paper roll reader, rolls and keyboard for a set of old 
Schulmerich "Carillonic Bells". The actual electromechanical bells are 
still in use,  but will be replaced in the future.  =)¶¶
Briefly: Continuous-loop paper rolls, 9-3/4" width. 30 holes, spaced 
5/16" apart. Capstan drive. 6 or 7 'songs' on a roll.¶¶
I have slapped together a 'web page with pictures and descriptions (so 
far). For interested folks who don't yet have 'web access, please email 
me directly. 

The page is at:  http://members.aol.com/ragtime4u/bells.html

Cheers!   -Pete

Note to Ron Yost: Ron, do you have photos of your Band Organ? I'm still 
interested in visiting!   -pw

 [ Editor's Note:
 [ Pete, I've looked at the pictures in the Web Page listed above.
 [ Very interesting.  Thanks for taking the trouble to scan them
 [ in and upload them.  I hope that subscribers to this list that
 [ are not yet using a service provider that allows "Web" access will
 [ consider upgrading.  A number of our subscribers have expressed a desire
 [ to be able to submit drawings to the group.  In the long run, using
 [ a Web Browser is much easier than any other mechanism we have.  You
 [ can directly, and automatically, retrieve any Binary file and display
 [ it automatically.  Pictures come out on your screen, and MIDI files
 [ get sent to your MIDI card or sound card (and/or get saved for a
 [ sequencer program).
 [ 
 [ Although Foxtail does not yet have a Web server running, I am always
 [ willing to post MIDI and graphics files which are not copyright
 [ infringements.  I'd be interested to know if those of you with
 [ Web Browsers can display the Graphics files from John Grant's
 [ solenoid valve subscription project:
 [
 [ ftp://ftp.foxtail.com/pub/automatic-music/misc/valvesub/valveskt.bmp
 [ ftp://ftp.foxtail.com/pub/automatic-music/misc/valvesub/valvepic.bmp
 [
 [ These are in a format which is common on the PC but I don't know
 [ if its one supported directly by the common Web Browsers.  Comments
 [ welcomed!
 [
