Printing Words & Graphics on Music Rolls
By Danny Wilson

After rebuilding a Weber Duo-Art of circa 1925 I realized that playing
these old rolls too much could result in their complete destruction.
About a year ago I began working on printing graphics and lyrics on
re-cut rolls so that I could enjoy them more (it ain't no fun just
list'nin' and not knowing the words).  Bob Billings re-cut some of my
ruined rolls and I began putting graphics on them (not easy).  I have
posted a couple on YouTube if anyone would care to inspect my efforts:
