I have owned several 'A' rolls with 4x-style arranging, usually called
"Xylophobia" or "Xylo Madness" or some type of fanciful xylophone name.
One original I recall began with "Thinking of You" and ended with
"Sunday" (1927-28?)

They are rare -- probably cut for the Seeburg styles K & E instruments
with single-strike beaters -- but nevertheless they do exist.  Don Rand
will also verify this.
