The Mighty WurliTzer |
||
At the May 30, 1905 opening of The Oaks, a band played for skating as well as concerts in the park. In time, this band was replaced with a large band organ (the music machines of carousels). In 1925, a Wood Pipe Organ was installed then upgraded until 1955 when this WurliTzer was installed. |
