Music Rolls by Pierre Labyt of Brugge
By Ed Hattrup

I have two rolls, the boxes are labeled
  Huis P. LABYT,
  St. Jacobstraat, 7,
  BRUGGE

The paper is 13-1/4 inches wide, pin end to pin end measures
14-1/2 inches, the spool flange is 3 inches diameter.

1. First roll: "Series 6338", tune list:
  Choisis Lison, Polka March;  Pour to* Valse;
  Masurka des Microhes, Miazurka; Nenette et Pinstintin, Polka;
  Au Ciprian, Scott March Espagnole.

The perforations are square cut and approximately 6 to inch.

2. Second roll: Programma, La Boheme, Potpourri.
On the roll is stamped  PIERRE LABYT, PIANOS -MUSQUE;
the perforations are round.

Both rolls look in playable condition, the boxes are worn and in average
condition and are 15"x3"x3".  I don't know what they are for.  I have
had them for several years; they were in a roll auction with other rolls.
I know that they won't fit my Pierre Eich.  Anyone interested?
