Rollography Introduction

Welcome to the 8TTI (Eight To The Inch Perforated) music roll rollography.

These particular music rolls were produced and used in specific early mechanically operated organs and pianos built by several manufactures from the late 1800’s to mid 1900’s. Roll production (and reproduction) continued on through the late 1900’s.

No undertaking of a broad-based rollography is possible without the willing and generous assistance and support from many individuals.

The following individuals and institutions provided access, advice, clarification, information and other valued assistance, all of which was crucial to the development and presentation of this rollography.
