Lind & Kibbey Music Rolls
By Mark Reinhart

I have been reading about the output of style "A" and "G" rolls for
automatic [coin-operated] musical instruments made and sold by Clark
Orchestra Rolls and Automatic Music Roll Co.  I also read a bit about
two little known manufacturers: Lind and Kibbey.

I have a question for the MMD readership: Does anyone know if Lind or
Kibbey ever cut any G-rolls?  Does anyone have any Lind or Kibbey rolls
of any kind?

Lind advertised in the 1920s that they made "Standard 65 note", which
I assume are A-rolls, and "Coinola 88-note", which I assume are
O-rolls.  I read somewhere that Kibbey cut music for automatics.
I am looking for information of any kind.
