Question for Wurlitzer Band 0rgan Wizards
By Doug Hershberger
There is a curious little device on the left door of both of my Wurlit-
zer band organs which has eluded my identification. It is a small wood
block with a vertical hole drilled through it, about the size of a
common lead pencil. Dangling out the bottom is a small spring-metal
clip that moves in each direction a bit and may be intended to hold
whatever was placed through the hole. I suppose some small tool may
have been furnished with the organs: a brush to clean the screens or a
hook for moving the tuning slides. Can anyone say for sure what the
purpose of this thing was?
