 Subject:       Organ Player Rolls

I obtained your address from newsgroup/automatic musical instruments
during my search for the following.  My neighbor has asked me to find a
supplier of organ player rolls per the following description.  Perhaps
you can help.

The organ is small and hand-cranked and identified by "Gately Mfg. Co."
The total length of the roll is approx. 4.5 inches; the flanges are of
wood, -- one flange has a pin hole, the other has a slight tubular
extension (approx. 0.25 in. long. 0.375 inches in dia.) with a slot cut
in said extension.  The paper is approx. 3.75 inches long and is punched
with round holes approximately 0.125 inches in dia.  The diameter of the
wooden flanges is approx. 1.5 inches.

Any info you can supply will certainly be appreciated.  Thank You
