The Mellotron Group

Hi all-
   I think that the term "Master Tape" may be a bit misleading.  3/8" tapes exist only on Mellotrons (and within the manufacturing process).  The reel has writing that indicate 2 sections of recordings.  It is probably 2 seperate sounds to fill 2 frames.   I do wonder what the "T.T. Choir" is, though.
   Isn't this the way Mellotron Archives produced their tapes (on large reels)?

A melltron 'master tape' (on reels, not a tape frame) is being auction in the current VEMIA auction.

I'm intrigued as to its provenance...
