The staff of Keystone Music reads MMD too and we want to reassure our
fellow Ampico enthusiasts Keystone is alive and well.

The upcoming catalog has grown since this past summer with the addition
of 'The Piano Trio' project.  This writer has personally witnessed
shelves laden with thousands of new rolls (100+ titles) and I will be
assisting with the punching of some additional titles in the coming
week.  Currently, Richard Groman is accepting orders for "Daddy Groman's
Moravian Bakery" and may be contacted by phone at 1-610-392-5455.

I'm sitting two feet away from Richard as I write this.  He and Frank
Thompson are busy putting the finishing touches on one of the unissued
jumbo rolls.  On Friday, we will be reviewing the proofs of the box
labels and as soon as the last few titles in the catalog have come off
the perforators and are ready to sell, the catalogs can be printed and
mailed.

If you are not currently on the mailing list, please send name and
address to

  Keystone Music Rolls
  Box 650
  Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18016 USA

If you have any requests for titles which could be offered in future
catalogs, or if you have an unusual or rare roll you'd like to share
with others, please don't hesitate to write or phone.

When I return from this visit, any additional news and photos will
be posted on or about October 26th on Larry Doe's Scanner Blog at
