Pin End Music Rolls
By Bob Lloyd

I purchased a roll collection; among them are pinned end rolls.
The roll itself is 11-1/4" long, 65 notes, manufactured by Vocalstyle,
patent dates 1907/1910.

Another pinned end which measures 13-1/4" states "Farrand Organ Co."
I would assume they play on an organ.  Need help to know what
instruments these play on.  Thanks for your help!

 [ Richard Vance and I started a web page called "Identifying Music
 [ Rolls", at http://mmd.foxtail.com/MMMedia/ , but the 13.25"
 [ size isn't listed.  I hope MMDers will send more info.  -- Robbie
