Band Organ Photos
By Robert Linnstaedt

Philip Jamison writes, "I've contacted several folks and posted a message
to our group in my quest for American-made band organ photographs.
Thus far, I've received none. ... Please, if you have any pictures of
Wurlitzer ...send them to me. ... Deadline is Christmas.  You'll be
helping a great project."

Is this a commercial publication?  I took several nice photos of a
Wurlitzer 125, including detailed shots of the interior mechanism.
Making the pictures involved much trouble and a little expense.

Sharing these pictures for charitable purposes is okay (what charity
needs band organ pictures?).  If this is to go into a book or magazine
for sale commercially, I'm not excited about giving away a set of prints
and mailing them first class.

Or am I just being a selfish old grouch?  ;-)

 [ Yes, it's commercial.  No, it's not a money-maker; it's probably a
 [ money-loser!  Just ask our MMD authors, like Craig Brougher and
 [ Philippe Rouille, about losing money at publishing books!  You might
 [ ask Philip if you could be reimbursed for your expenses.  -- Robbie
