Dear Stephen Kent Goodman

Some months ago, I got a sample from Player Piano Company, of synthetic
clothing, I believe the right size for medium pneumatics e.g. wind
motors.  It is numbered #1046, and is dark grey and looks pretty good.

I have bought some of it for my Duo Art accordion pneumatics. It was
difficult to glue though, even with plastic glue which it is designed
for. It had a really fresh rubber smell, unfortunately in opposition
to other clothing that I have bought from PPCo, which also were fine
though. Try it!

Sincerely Thomas Henden, Norway.
