Seek Wurlitzer 125 Band Organ Data Card
By Doug Hershberger

I just acquired a Wurlitzer 125 band organ, number 2109.  I suppose
it is an early unit that was updated sometime years after it was made.

The card that was tacked inside the hinged door on the left is gone.
The evidence of its being is the four tiny tacks still on the inside of
the door and a faint "shadow" in the varnish of about 5-1/2" x 6-3/4".

Has anyone reproduced these cards?  It may have included the organ
style and serial numbers and probably gave instructions for operating
the single tracker and possibly other directions for care and set-up.
I have seen these cards in various sizes and this is the largest.

Has anyone an organ originally equipped with a single tracker and with
this size card still in it?  I'd like to know for sure what information
was given.
