Seek Rolls for Wurlitzer 5-roll Changer Nickelodeon
By Arthur Marino

Is there any source for rolls for a Wurlitzer 5-roll automatic
changer nickelodeon?  I had a client who died recently and her son
is looking to either sell it or keep the piano and get some new
rolls for it.  This is truly a marvelous instrument to watch as it
goes through the roll changing process!

The piano has been restrung and it plays well.  All works with
the coin drop.  The only things that do not work are the mandolin
that is triggered from the tracker bar and the soft and loud pedals.
When I worked on the piano I rebuilt the bottom bellows and the
soft/loud/mandolin switch box but she was reluctant to have me spend
the time to connect it to the tracker bar.  Any ideas, guys and gals?
