Seek Philipps Pianella Mandoline (PM) Rolls
By Rick Cooley

Hi Folks,  Yes, I need your help again.  I am looking for a quantity of
Philipps Pianella Mandoline (PM) rolls as described in the "Treasures
of Mechanical Music" by Arthur Reblitz.  I understand that this is the
same roll used by the Wurlitzer Mandolin Pianorchestra.

I have now assembled all the components for this wonderful instrument.
With a huge, reproduction case, I will be in business.  Like the
existing originals and reproductions, we will install a MIDI system
to bring the orchestrion up to the full sound of the originals.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
