Music Rolls for Kilgen Player Organ

Marc,  Thank you for your reply.  I wonder how difficult it would
be to use your roll as a template and mark the holes with a pencil,
then punch them out (?).

Does your player actually have four tracker bars?  I have seen
a picture of an Aeolian player that had several tracker bars in
a configuration like a wide wheel or tumbler.  Apparently the machine
played number one, then number two, and so on.

Was your player located inside the console?  Mine is located beneath
the manuals in a sliding drawer on tracks.  The wires are wired into
the junction board on the front side along with all of the other
console wires.

Please let me know of your progress.
