Seek Wilcox & White 44-note Player Organ Rolls
By Larry Claus

The Lee Conklin Reed Organ Museum in Hanover, Michigan, has a restored
Wilcox & White player reed organ which uses 44-note rolls.  They have
only one roll and would like to acquire more, possibly recut, so that
the organ can be played when the museum is open.  Can anyone help locate
such rolls that can stand up to repeated use?  Thanks in advance.
