FS: New Wurlitzer Frames and Valves
By Gordon Forcier

In approximately three weeks I will be manufacturing Wurlitzer unit valves and roll frames. The roll frame should be usable in any Wurlitzer instru- ment, and it consists of the following: take up spool, tracker bar (specify format), supply spool, rewind motor, drive motor with variable tempo controller, play trip pawl, lock and cancel valves for rewind pneumatic, standard size roll core, standard width paper -- although the take-up and supply spool are also adjustable for any over-width paper.

Any roll frame can be made, including Pianino or Caliola. I will probably make replacement roll frames for any style organ, even North Tonawanda, Artizan, and BAB. The only exception to doing the latter is that no pressure roller will be on the tracker bar, thus a vacuum pump would have to be incorporated. All one has to do is specify which unit and format and we will make it to order.

I am purchasing all of George Cooper's inventory and equipment and intend to carry on the tradition of supplying what the public in general needs or wants. There will be a few changes made, but top quality is what the people will get.

Happy organing to all
Gordy
