The Chuck Wagon Cafe, Atoka, Oklahoma, was sold off about 20 years ago.
The Coinola SO had been sold years before to Haning and White.  It is
now in a private collection.  He also had a very rare Cremona; I have
wondered where it ended up.  Only a couple of people showed up for the
auction and I was not one of them.

Tom Fretty, of Manly, Iowa, was more of a dealer.  He auctioned off the
bulk of the museum 20 years ago and I think he still goes to band organ
rallies and travels the country buying and selling.  The official name
was Mechanical Music Wonderland.

If anyone ever visited the museum when it was open then it was a treat,
as he had most of the popular Wurlitzer band organs and many pianos.
The inventory was always changing.  His Coinola CO is now in a private
collection in Illinois.  The collection was maintained for years by
Tom Wurderman.  I cut the grass there one summer and helped build the
mountain out of a silo by mixing concrete in a mixer all day.
