Catalogue Illustration of a
Wurlitzer style 33-A
Mandolin PianOrchestra
Philipps Pianella Model 33

Circa 1911/12 catalogue illustration of a Wurlitzer 33A Mandolin PianOrchestra.

Catalogue illustration circa 1911-1912. This Wurlitzer catalogue illustration is slightly different than what is shown in the Philipps catalogue for this instrument, in that the scenic panels along each side are plain wooden panels in the Philipps catalogue.

Note the Bontems mechanical singing birds in the gilded cage, located in the center niche. The spring-motor mechanism is tripped for one "play" during the automatic rewinding of the music rolls.
