Wurlitzer 105 Band Organ at Storybook Land
By Cassidy Juraniec

Hello, around last Christmas I went on a trip to Storybook Land in
Egg Harbor City, New Jersey, and there I saw a Wurlitzer 105 band
organ sitting idle next to an antique car displayed inside a garage
with antique cars and fire engines.

I had originally documented this Wurlitzer 105 sighting on the
"List of Wurlitzer band organs" Wikipedia page one day after my trip.
After checking the page again, someone has updated it to being able
to play. This makes sense since I saw it plugged in during my trip;
however, as of now there is no current way to get it to play for the
public. I would love to be able to hear it some day. I have pictures
of this Wurlitzer 105.

I also found a doll-size mini organ -- it is just a doll-size replica
in the Shirley Temple Collection at the Storybook Land gift shop which
I also took a picture of.
