There is no box but this roll is wrapped in tissue paper. and although repaired with black tape it looks workable. There is some pencil writing on the roll: "58 note roll | This roll is 10 1/16 inches wide | the standard 58 note organ rolls are 10 1/8 inches wide. Most of the Fyvie Castle rolls are/about 10 5/16 wide (for example Siegfried (Wagner) rolls, but many vary from 10 1/16 to 10 5/16th wide making tracking alignments impossible for all rolls. (For example see Samson & Dalilah (Saint-Saens) roll [which] is 10 3/16ths wide)." Craig Macpherson February 1989.
