What's a Connorized Roll?
By Rick Inzero

Can someone tell me what a "Connorized" roll is? I have several antique 88-note player piano rolls that proudly proclaim this, but I haven't been able to figure out what it means.

[ Hmmm... This sounds like a patented-process name, like "Sanforized"
[ and "Macadamized." Maybe they had a patented roll-arranging process;
[ as I recall the Connorized rolls are characterized by big full chords
[ and thousands of little holes! ;-) -- Robbie
