Band Organ at Jolly Roger Amusement Park
By Rich Wolfin

-- forwarded message, please reply to sender and MMD --

As a kid in the early 1960s I used to go to the Jolly Roger Amusement
Park in Hempstead, New York.  I remember a very ornate band organ which
would play every half hour or so.  It had incredible carved 18th
Century styled figures.  The park closed in the 1970s.  Does anyone
know anything about this organ and where it ended up?

Best regards,
