Number on Longest Wurlitzer Trumpet Pipe
By Don Paynter

We have a question that we hope someone can help us answer.  The
number "294" is stamped into the brass stem of the longest pipe
of the rank of Trumpet pipes that came out of the Crystal Palace.
Would this indicate that it was the 294th rank of pipes put into
Photoplayers?

Considering there were only 293 Style "K" built, and only two or three
Style "J" Photoplayers, can we track the year the "K" Style was built
by the number on the pipes?

Regards,
