(Robinson Crusoe, Jr. was an extravaganza that opened at the Winter Garden Theatre on 17 February 1916. The original Broadway production was produced by Lee Shubert and Jacob J. Shubert, directed by J. C. Huffman and choreographed by Helen Tamiris. Music was by Sigmund Romberg and the book and lyrics were by Harold R. Atteridge. The show was the last major musical that Jacob J. Shubert staged during World War I, and he instructed Romberg to avoid any of his Austro-Hungarian musical idioms.)

these piano rolls were such a cool invention

[@playerpianogal]

They certainly were!! And look how long even old ones had lasted!! What many people don't know is that piano rolls were the forerunners of the early computers that used the punched cards.
