Mechanical Music on TV "Andy Griffith Show"
By Cassidy Juraniec

I watched a clip of the Andy Griffith episode, "Pickle Contest",
and I heard a Wurlitzer 165 recording playing "Ben Hur Chariot Race"
at the beginning of the fair scene. I had my very good friend Andrew
Lardieri identify it for me after I showed the clip to him one day.
Here is the link to the video:
