After all the years at the present location, DeBence Antique Music
World is still sorting items purchased with the DeBence collection
15 years ago! What we just sorted are 12 Wurlitzer Style W Organette
rolls.
They are in original Wurlitzer boxes which are badly beat up. The
rolls all green paper, and appear playable, in much better condition
than the boxes, but we have no machine that uses them, so we cannot
actually try them out.
We have no good handle on what they are worth, but since we just put in
a new elevator and mortgaged our collective souls we would rather have
money than rolls we cannot use. Make an offer, or give us some advice.
List follows with the Wurlitzer label comments.
