Hi Jim!Sorry I had skipped over this message inadvertantly, or I would have realized you meant the price to be $3.50.
Here's my WebCrawler search page if you want to follow it. Perhaps there might be something of interest for you here. There are several pages I didn't look at, too.

Hi Cindy,Sorry. I did mean $3.50. This is the organization you get in touch with when you follow a link to get an embossed copy of a book. They do not do music.

I hope you mean $3.50 a braille page. Even that seems a little high. I trust they are going to have it proofread first.
