AMICA Convention Replica Band Organ Table Favors
By Glenn Thomas

The recently concluded AMICA Convention had a sensational table
favor that has been getting rave reviews from all who attended.
We have a limited supply of extras available for purchase.

Since this convention was a joint event with the Carousel Organ
Association of America's (COAA) band organ rally, and since the
collection tours allowed guests to see and enjoy five of the
remaining 13 Wurlitzer 165 band organs, what better to offer than
a working miniature 165 band organ!

This device, designed by the AMICA Princeton Convention team
and built by Bill Klinger, is made of wood, has a replica façade,
contains a rechargeable electronic player with radio, SD card and
USB input, remote control, instruction manual, and a loaded SD
card with recorded Wurlitzer 165 band organ selections.

Photos, front and back are uploaded with this posting [links below].
A YouTube instructional video which also shows the unit is here:

Builder Bill Klinger has a special email address for technical
questions on the unit: AMICAtablefavor@gmail.com.geentroep [delete
".geentroep" to reply]

The price is $65 postpaid to any USA addresses.  Foreign
shipments available.  Check payable to AMICA and sent to
Glenn Thomas, 165 Kildee Rd, Belle Mead, NJ 08502 USA.  Or PayPal
to wurlitzer165@comcast.net.geentroep [delete ".geentroep" to reply]
(add $3 for PayPal).  All proceeds go to support AMICA.
