Will this organ be at any rallies this year?

[wurlitzer153duplex]

@Wurlitzer157 I don't have any information about their rally plans this year. They usually get to most of the rallies in this region.

no such thing as vvurlitzer 146 duplex organ

[wurlitzer153duplex]

The duplex roll frame was available at extra cost on all 150 roll playing organs, not just the 153. Although rare, they do exist.

For example, several years ago Bill Black documented the restoration of a 146A for the carousels dot c o m website. Although this organ originally had only one roll frame, it was later replaced by a duplex frame. The articles are still on that site by following the "Wurlitzer 146 Restoration" link on the front page. Part 10 details restoration of the roll frames.

How does doug herschberger know the boys will see us thru?

[wurlitzer153duplex]

@anglerfly This roll was punched using the same master rolls that were made by Wurlitzer's arrangers. All Doug needed to do was to put the master for "The Boys Will See Us Thru" into the punch's reader.
