PianoLodeon Rolls
By Bob Billings

We have a PianoLodeon with a modest collection of rolls.  We would be
interested in exchanging lists of rolls with other owners for possible
trades or sales.  We also have what we think is a complete list of the
rolls produced by Chein for the little beastie.  If anyone is interested
we will post it on the MMD.

An interesting historic bit on the rolls:  They were arranged by J.
Lawrence Cook (that fellow really got around!).  On a visit to our house
once he noticed the PianoLodeon and said he'd "done a bunch of rolls for
Chein."  He reluctantly agreed to autograph the "St. Louis Blues", ending
with the note "but don't blame me!"
