Source of 20-note Organ Rolls
By Hal O'Rourke

I am the U.S. representative for four companies who supply 20-note rolls
compatible with the Hofbauer 20-note organ.  These are Raffin (Germany),
Melvyn Wright, Happy Cow Music, and Alderman and Davis (the last three
companies all in England).  The three companies in England have popular
American tunes rarely found on rolls from Germany.

I also supply conversion parts so these rolls can be converted to the
Hofbauer system.  I have cassette recordings of the majority of the music
available so you can hear it before making expensive mistakes.  I believe
this is a unique service.

Free information sent on request.

 [ It's great to have a local contact, Hal.  I understand that the rolls
 [ are a standardized scale nowadays; is a standard developing for the
 [ spools and flanges, too?  How do they differ?  -- Robbie
