Auditioning & Collecting Music Rolls
By Doug Anderson

Does any one know of books written on QRS music rolls, when they were
issued, what is their collectability, fair market price, etc., or any
sound bites of them?

I would really like to hear some of the old tunes _before_ I buy them.
I have purchased several on eBay, many of which are probably destined
for the trash unless they have some collector value.  Then again, if
they had collector value they probably would not have sold cheaply on
eBay.

I don't want to throw away a piece of history, on the other hand I may
just have a piece of junk...

 [ at the record store, and the patience the proprietor had with us
 [ kids.  I bought lots of jazz records...  -- Robbie
