Dear Jody,

Another source of Automatic Music in New York State is the Carousel
Museum in North Tonawanda, New York. It started out as the Herschell
Spillman Carousel Factory many moons ago and went out of business in
the 40s or 50s.  About 5 - 6 years ago, some conservation-minded
citizens decided to do something about the building before it went the
way of the Wurlitzer Factory.  They cleaned up the building, erected a
carousel in the original carousel- testing area, set up displays, and
opened the doors. They have an original Wurlitzer band organ (125?)
providing music for the carousel. They have also obtained a perforator
which was used in the manufacture of band organ rolls originally at
Wurlitzer and then later at their company. The address is 180 Thompson
St., North Tonawanda 14120. Their phone number is 716-693-1885.  I
believe that they are open year round. Bob Conant may know more about
the Band Organ than myself.  Best Wishes.

Mike Walter
