Quite a few years ago the Austin Quad perforator was resurrected to
make rolls for the Austin player organs.  I believe the man's name that
got it was Alan Miller of Connecticut.  That's been at least twenty-
five years ago but someone may know of the whereabouts of that perfora-
tor and if it is capable of making 176-note Aeolian (sic) rolls.  Note:
I suspect that this should be Aeolian-Skinner Duo-Art organ rolls that
use 176 holes.

Regarding the paper to use for punching music rolls, when I was making
rolls in the late sixties and early seventies I used what is known as
Dry-waxed Kraft.  It was available in widths that were multiples of
three inches, i.e., six, nine, twelve, or fifteen inches, and required
the paper be trimmed to size as it went through the perforator.

The largest problem for me at the time was the minimum order of four
tons that the paper company imposed for producing this paper in the
sizes that I wanted.  Even one or two tons of paper can very soon get
to be a problem logistically.

There are people that are currently using paper for roll making and
they may have a better arrangement for ordering paper.  The Dry-waxed
Kraft that I used was excellent in all respects for making music rolls.
