Recutting Wurlitzer RJ Player Pipe Organ Rolls
By Michael Fox

Charles, Thank you for the offer of help with the roll players.
We have two: the Fred Beeks unit and the player that was with
the Rainbow Room Wurlitzer organ.  They are a mess.  I have "0"
knowledge of what makes them tick.

Currently we, all twelve of us, are restoring a large 4-manual,
20-rank Wurlitzer organ, while maintaining five organs, expanding
the Brook Wurlitzer, and trying to finish a toy counter and Deagan
Vibraharp for the Rainbow Room Wurlitzer.

I've had thoughts on the roll players for some time now and may bring
the Fred Beeks unit to my home for restoration.  You may hear from me
soon.

Thank you,

Mike Fox
