MessageHi Alan,
You had labelled it correctly. I am still using my roll, bit by bit.
Nameboard felt, it is.

  "What is 38" wide red felt? I am confused ..."

  It was supposed to say 3/8" ... wait, maybe the slash doesn't print right, anyway "three-eights of an inch."

  Well, I can't imagine every ordering such a great wad of red nameboard felt. I'm guessing it's key bushing felt. Anyone remember APSCO having kinda weird (and a little fuzzy) bushing felt?

  By the way, this isn't the first time I've wished I'd hung onto my APSCO catalog.

    Alan

    It looks like name board felt to me. I have another wad of this also. Could it be old bushing cloth that was used in key work?
     Help.

      Just inventoried my felts and punchings; came across old envelop full of alien guts, or something.

       I bought this years ago from APSCO, I'm sure. The number on it is 902 A. 

      It is 38" wide red felt, so I assume it is for key bushing, but it is fuzzier and woven differently than Schaff's key felt. At some point, I wrote "Nameboard Felt" on the package--no way, too narrow, too thick.

      When it was new, it was in a very pretty coil. Now it looks like a pile of spaghetti, or as I say, alien guts. Ha.
