 + Hi,
 + 
 + I collect Duo Art and Red Welte reproducing pianos.  I used to have a
 + couple of Recordo instruments.  When they were sold I was ovewrseas and
 + not all the rolls went with them.  So, I have a few hundred Recordo
 + system rolls.  Recordo was the expression system devised in the US
 + before WW1 to try to allow more manufacturers into the reproducing
 + market.  The specs were set at the 1911 Buffalo Convention.  Not quite
 + as sophisticated as Welte or Ampico or Duo Art but an amazing system
 + none the less.
