PRELIMINARY NOTE: On Wurlitzer's roll-issuing practices for the style 150 series.

PART 1: Rolls for the early (short-roll) tracker frame. This style roll was discontinued in August 1925.

PART 2: Rolls 13005-13268 for the long-roll tracker frame. Begun probably in late 1913 and issued to the end of Wurlitzer's roll business in 1945.

PART 3: Rolls 13269-13314 for the long-roll tracker frame, issued by the Allan Herschell Company in 1946 and then by the T.R.T. Manufacturing Company until the mid 1960's.

PART 4: Rolls issued by Play-Rite Music Rolls, Inc., and others (sequentially numbered rolls first, followed by unnumbered and erratically numbered rolls)

PART 5: Tune index. Alphabetical list of all tunes in this catalog.






PRELIMINARY NOTE: ON WURLITZER'S ROLL-ISSUING PRACTICES FOR THE STYLE 150 SERIES.

Early Wurlitzer organs were built with a roll frame capable of handling only a roll about four or five tunes in length. Toward the end of 1913 the company began furnishing roll frames capable of handling the 10-tune roll that was to become the standard roll. However it wasn't until August 1925 that Wurlitzer ceased making the shorter type of roll. From 1913 to 1925, tunes were generally supplied on both types of roll in order to satisfy organ owners, no matter which type of roll frame their organ used.

Most rolls contained currently popular tunes, and the copyright dates of the tunes on a roll usually coincide with the issue date of the roll. There were some exceptions here and there, particularly when Wurlitzer decided to issue one of their "review rolls" (probably for reasons of economy; it was cheaper to make a roll out of previously-arranged tunes than to pay arrangers for new work). "Review rolls" contained tunes, usually all-marches or all-waltzes, that had appeared earlier, here and there, on other Wurlitzer rolls. The production of 10-tune rolls probably averaged out to about one new roll per month.

The normal progression of things was interrupted in early 1929, between rolls 13164 and 13179, both of which were issued in early 1929, judging from tune dates. Between these two roll numbers fourteen rolls were issued in the space of two or three months. Ignoring for a moment roll 13165 ("Waltz Roll For Skating") and roll 13178 ("Blue Roll"), the other twelve rolls contain about 118 tunes -- all of which appeared on earlier Wurlitzer 150 rolls. Actually five tunes do not show up on known pre-1929 rolls, but that is probably because our data for style 150 rolls has some lacunae. Those five tunes are "Boys In Blue" (1905), "Comedy King" (1923), "Kaiser Frederic" (1909), "Kill-kare" (1923), and "Under The Double Eagle" (1913).

The first seven of these twelve rolls in this atypical production run are titled "March Roll"; the last five are titled "Waltz Roll" or "Standard Waltz Roll."

With roll 13179 Wurlitzer went back to its normal practice of offering new and current tunes. The two rolls on either side of the anomalous twelve, rolls 13165 and 13178, do contain old tunes of a single type (waltzes in the former, blues in the latter); but unlike the twelve which they bracket, these rolls contain for the most part tunes that had not been used on earlier style 150 rolls.

The Great Depression of 1929 unquestionably affected the Rudolph Wurlitzer Company, and two practices arose in the early 1930's which can probably be attributed to the company's efforts to cut costs. The most noticeable change was that its band organ rolls no longer contained ten tunes, but only 6 very long ones, with enough repeats to make the 6-tune roll about the same playing length as a ten-tune roll. The arranging costs for a six-tune roll had to be far less than the costs for arranging ten tunes.

The second practice is less noticeable. Throughout Wurlitzer roll production there has always been some similarity in contents between its style 125 rolls and its style 150 rolls (but virtually no simliarity with its style 165 rolls). However, in 1930 what was merely an occasional similarity became a lock-step correspondence. Beginning with roll 13188 and continuing down to roll 13228, the contents of 150 rolls, tune-for-tune, was identical to the contents of style 125 rolls, those numbered 3165 to 3204. That is, from mid-1930 to early 1933, the same tunes in the same order were issued on both a 125 roll and a 150 roll. During those almost three years, there was no roll issued in one format that was not also issued in the other format.

From mid-1933 to late 1934, there was no correspondence between style 150 and style 125 rolls. Only one style 125 roll (3205) was issued during that period, while five style 150 rolls appeared (13229 to 13233). In late 1934, the lock-step correspondence between the rolls in the two series resumed (at roll 13234 and roll 3206 respectively) and continued without a single anomaly down to the end of Wurlitzer production in 1945 with roll 13268 and its 125 twin, roll 3240.

One wonders what changes to the arrangements were required in producing the masters for each format and how much money was saved by the practice.
