Green Welte Rolls
from Dan Wilson, London
•The green-paper Welte system was a development of the white-paper one (which itself was a development of the red-paper system!) in about 1927. It was not an improvement operationally but enabled a cheaper instrument to give the same result. The earlier systems used perfora- tions in the edges of ro...

Painted Green Welte Roll

•Hi from Tasmania. Does anybody know of a source for the green string that Aeolian used to use on those rolls that had a string tie around them? It looks like light-weight string fishing line to me.

Converting T-98 "Green" Welte-Mignon to Licensee
from Grahame Code
•An inquiry has emerged as to the feasibility of converting an upright Bechstein Green Welte reproducing piano to play Licensee rolls. In theory, a tracker bar swap might be all that's needed.
