'Treasures of Mechanical Music'
By Julian Dyer

It's good that so many have responded positively.  However, the message
seems to have got a bit messed up along the way!

The original message was that Harvey Roehl was talking with National
Book Network (NBN) about what they would require to _consider_
reprinting this book - and they said 300 sales.  Harvey wants to know
the likely market.  We _know_ there is no current project to reprint,
just the initial feelers for the market.

I have seen a letter from Harvey saying NBN only have rights to about
twelve of the Vestal books, having dropped far more than three titles
as Don Teach mentioned.  I am sure Harvey knows who has these other
rights and wouldn't propose anything which violated them.

I was told that the contact at NBN is:

   Jed Lyons,
   National Book Network,
   4720 Boston Way,
   Langham,
   Maryland 20706

(If NBN's anything like the company I work for, if you get the wrong
person there's no hope of getting the right answer!)

Alternatively, why not talk to Harvey Roehl:

   3533 Stratford Drive
   Vestal NY 13850-2222
   (phone) 607 797 2624 (but don't pester him all at once!)
