Seek National Automatic Tune Names & Roll Numbers
By Charlie Morgan

I am putting together a catalog/rollography of roll numbers and tune
names for National Automatic coin-operated roll-changer pianos. These
are pianos manufactured by National Piano Manufacturing Company that
have an 8-roll "Ferris wheel" changer on the bottom of the piano.

The auxiliary National Automatic Music Company, also of Grand Rapids,
Michigan, owned and serviced all the National pianos, kept the music
repertoire up to date on a weekly basis, and collected the nickels 
earned.

If you own a National Automatic changer piano and/or rolls please
contact me.
