Band Organ at King's Dominion Park, Doswell, VA
By William Griswold Jr.

I have come across a photo of the band organ at King's Dominion theme
park in Doswell, VA.  Does anyone know anything about the organ?  From
what I remember seeing of it in 2000, it looks like a Gavioli, but the
Carousel Census called it an Artizan.  Someone in the park back then
told me of plans to have the organ restored, but I didn't buy it.

I would love to hear the organ playing again.  The carousel the organ
is on is PTC #44, which was originally from my home park Six Flags
New England (formerly Riverside Park), in Agawam, MA.  Please fill
me in on any information you'd have.
