"End of the Day" Band Organ Rolls
By Doug Hershberger

The "End of the Day" or "Closing" roll could easily be issued by the
Herschell Carousel Factory Museum as a "Theme Roll" made up from any
masters we own in either Style 125 or Style 150.  Simply check our
Master Roll Listing that we have offered all summer and suggest the
titles you want included on this roll, and indicate the roll number
and tune number (e.g., 13107-3).  Use the e-mail address below.

We have an ideal opener in our "W.W.II Remembered" roll which begins with
"God Bless America" and ends with "The White Cliffs of Dover", a nice
sentimental closer.  It is made in 125 and 150 format, roll number 3800
and 13800 respectively.  Check Matthew Caulfield's on-line Wurlitzer
150 catalogue for all the titles: http://www.wurlitzer-rolls.com/ 
Roll 3800 has most of the same titles but specific information is
available from HCFM at the email address below.  Roll 3800 is currently
sold out but there are several copies of 13800 remaining.
