Ampico Catalog Found on Internet
By Brian Chesters

Just a note to say thank you. Some time ago there was a note by Peter
Coggins with reference to two book search engines on the Internet.

In the 1970s I had "A Catalog of Music for the Ampico", 1925.  More
plentiful in the States but not common in the UK.  A member of the North
West Player Piano Association was researching various composers and the
rolls they produced and so I sold it to him.  In the intervening years I
have never found another one for sale.

In less than two minutes on the Internet search facilities, there were
four available.  E-mails sent revealed that one had sold and that left
three.  So I bought all three just for the hell of it.

So Peter and the MMD, Thank you!!
