With no further info, all I can tell you is that the rolls for my
Kilgen organ have this configuration. They may be Clark Artistouch
Organ rolls.  These are standard player piano size, but 98 holes wide.

I am actively looking for rolls for the organ I am rebuilding. If you
would like to sell your rolls to me I would like to buy them.
