Don, if this is a search for possible buyers, count me in!  I own an
unrestored upright and also will be using a bunch of "A" valves in
a band organ I'm building, so will need a bunch of gaskets, probably
at least 200.  Not much of a demand, but it is something.

Also, thanks for your thoughts on the cork-rubber composition gaskets.
I'm facing that question as I begin restoration of the Ampico, and
would much prefer leather gaskets.
