FS: "Silver Swan Rag" Scott Joplin Rare Roll
By Marc Sachnoff

Hello Mechanical Music Lovers,  I have decided to part with one of the
rarest and most difficult to find piano rolls I have ever encountered.
I am offering for sale on eBay the Master Record issue of Scott Joplin's
unpublished "Silver Swan Rag".

This original roll was issued by the National Music Roll Company and
is in excellent condition.  This is the only version I'm aware of that
clearly credits Scott Joplin as the composer on both the box and roll
label.  The discovery of this roll generated a lot of interest among
collectors, ragtimers, and researchers.

It's a great piano roll but certain things are best shared with others.
I'm donating 5% of the proceeds after eBay fees to MMD (capped at $100)
as a way of saying thanks to Jody and Robbie for all of their hard work
over the years.  You can view the listing at
