Band Organs in the Cold
By Jim Kenney

I have seen and heard band organs in the cold.  Paul Torin's 164 and
157 Wurlitzers were kept in trailers for outdoor use and he played them
quite often in the bitter cold.

They seemed to play fine but they did slow down some what due to the
stiffness of the leather and cloth.  Otherwise the Christmas music
sounded just great!
