Nickelodeon Piano Co. of Huntsville, Alabama
By Dan Robinson

The posts in MMD 21.04.23 about the Nickelodeon Piano Co. of Huntsville,
Alabama, caught my eye since I've heard tale of a Wurlitzer Style 153
band organ that was in Huntsville.

A friend of mine saw an image through a Google book search showing what
appeared to be a Wurlitzer Style 153 in a Huntsville grocery store, part
of the now-defunct Delchamps chain of stores. The organ was positioned
on a pedestal at the end of the grocery aisles. Unfortunately, the image
was not saved and has eluded our searches.

I wondered whether the organ may have had some connection with the
Nickelodeon Piano Co. and its adjoining music store, but the authors of
the recent posts don't remember ever seeing the organ. Can anyone shed
some light on this?
