Repairing Old Piano Rolls
By Augie Gonzales

I have been using Scotch Magic Tape since at least 1969.  I do also
use the document tape since it is now suggested.  However, since my
player has the "fingers" for mechanical tracking I need a firm tape,
not the paper tape.  Besides, way back long ago QRS itself suggested
Scotch Magic tape.  I think the tape holds up great. I see no problems
whatsoever.  The only problem with the magic tape is that once it is
down it is there for good, but the document tape can be lifted carefully
if done immediately.
