Seek "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" Music Roll
By Dave Saul

Hello all,  I am seeking a piano roll version of the 1940 tune,
"Polka Dots and Moonbeams".  The tune was first made popular by
Tommy Dorsey with a Frank Sinatra vocal.  According to the Billings
rollography, this was released as QRS 7226.  There may be other piano
roll versions, although this title does not appear in any reproducing
roll listings that I have.

I would like to purchase a copy (QRS or any other brand) in good
condition or borrow for scanning.  In return for borrowing a scan-able
copy, I will pay postage both ways and also give the roll's owner
a choice of any Ampico roll from the Precision Music Rolls catalog.
Please contact me if you can help with this.  Thanks.
