Mrs. Lockman created the collection as a means of preserving a part of this unique local and national industrial heritage. The Lockman Collection is on loan to the museum for an extended period. This collection of original machinery from the early 1900's Wurlitzer Company factory demonstrates the production of paper music rolls. Band organs need these rolls to play the magical sounds which have always been a part of the carousel experience. The exhibit includes over 1600 hand-punched original master rolls dating back to the turn of the century from the Wurlitzer Company and later TRT Manufacturing.
Music rolls produced by a volunteer crew are available for purchase in the gift shop.
