Wanted: "The King's Horses"
By Karl Ellison

After a year, I'm still looking for the piano roll, "The King's Horses", QRS #5108 or Imperial #07752, released April 1931. Any help or offers please forward to me.

I was once told by Dan Wilke, QRS's Auction coordinator, that '30s rolls are especially hard to find. Is this because of the economy? The decline in new player sales?
