AMICA's Lady Liberty Chapter (which is the chapter of AMICA which
I'm a member of and have been for two years now), have donated
money to the Herschell Carrousel Factory & Museum in North Tonawanda,
New York, towards the restoration of the original roll perforator
from the B.A.B. factory.
Today I got some great news from Vincent Morgan, the president
of the Lady Liberty Chapter of AMICA, that the perforator has now
been completely restored to new and it's going be used to punch
new band organ rolls [for the museum's 61-key Artizan "D" organ].
Here's a link to the article which discusses the restoration:
