Gasoline Engine for Band Organ
By Bob Stewart 

Does anyone have pictures or information on what type of gasoline
engine would have been used to power a 1929 Wurlitzer Caliola or
Band Organ?  The Wurlitzer catalog says it was available with
a 1-1/2 horsepower gasoline engine.

This machine has a 3" wide by 11-1/2" diameter flat belt pulley.
Thought it might be interesting to have it gasoline powered as
I have never seen one restored that way.
