Recutting Duo-Art "Die Valkyrie"
By Bruce Grimes

Some of us are thinking about doing a recut project of the two Duo-Art
rolls from the Ring Cycle, Die Valkyrie.

The Powells began doing the Ring Cycle but, sadly, folded before
completing it.  These two rolls have, to my knowledge, never been recut
before.  They would be done on the tried and true paper used here in
the States.  Unfortunately the theme holes would be standard size perfs,
not the traditional small ones.  However, in this particular case, the
music does not require the precision original size perfs deliver, so
the rolls should work just fine. Besides, I've waited for 20 years and
put up with warped originals for too long.

The price will probably depend on how many of us are interested, but
it would probably be in range of $25 to $35 per roll.  All I want to do
is clear the cost on this; I don't want a cent, not even a free set.

Please let me know if you're interested.  If there are enough of us,
I'll get back with the info.
