Tilden Regional Park Band Organ Restoration
By George Karpel

The article submitted by Jessica Craine concerning restoration of the
Tilden Park Band organ did not specify which organ needs restoration.
There are two organs at the carousel.  The smaller organ (playing 150
Wurlitzer music) is in the center of the carousel.  The larger one (a
66-key Ruth playing B.A.B. rolls) is placed against the wall.

I'm not sure which organ Ms. Craine was referring to.  If it's the
larger Ruth, then it would take more money to restore than the smaller
organ.  Could someone please clarify?
