Source of Wurlitzer Style 125 Band Organ Rolls
By Bruce Pier

Randy Charles recently posted a request for sources for Wurlitzer
Style 125 band organ rolls.  The Herschell Carousel Museum in North
Tonawanda, NY has the Wurlitzer band organ roll masters and two of the
perforators.  They have produced some Style 125 and Style 150 rolls.

From what I have gathered production has been limited.  They are still
learning how the equipment works, with the aid of Ralph Tussing's son
who actually ran the perforators for his father.  Information about the
museum can be found via The Carousel Network web site.
