Seek Gershwin "Show Girl" Piano Roll Recordings
By Adam Aceto

I am looking for any or all piano roll recordings (expressive or
non-expressive), of any brand (except Ampico), for the following
works by George Gershwin, written or made part of his 1929 Broadway
musical "Show Girl".

Again, I already have documentation of all related Ampico rolls.
The following seven songs were all published as sheet music:

An American in Paris
Do What You Do!
Feeling Sentimental
Harlem Serenade
I Must Be Home By Twelve O'Clock
Liza (All the Clouds Will Roll Away)
So Are You!

Thank you,

Adam Aceto
Winter Garden, Florida
