I recently became aware of the existence of a Wurlitzer style 165 music
roll containing songs from "The Wizard of Oz".  Does anyone know if this
roll is available for purchase or have one to lend for copying?  I would
also like to know about how many were produced, and by whom.  I'm
guessing that it is quite rare.

 [   ... (the 75-note Stinson Roll has the same spacing as the Style
 [   165 but includes eight bass, 22 melody, 20 counter melody and 10
 [   accompaniment notes, for a more European sound). ... Stinson also
 [   had several special tunes arranged in his new scale.  These tunes
 [   became signature tunes if you owned a Stinson band organ.  They are
 [   Mary Poppins, Sound of Music, Notre Dame Fight Song and the Wizard
 [   of Oz. ... The new rolls were custom-punched for the Stinson Band
 [   Organ Company by Mike Grant in Columbia City, IN.
