You are correct sir, I hadn't noticed those before! I'll order a bag and see how they fit. Otherwise I may have found another source from a lurker. This is not a pump organ it's a 1925 Wurlitzer carousel organ, (band organ). The originals were just slightly smaller then a hammer shank but the hole through the guide rail and wind chest will accept a hammer shank perfectly, in fact I like them better. Wurlitzer used either glued on leather nuts or wood collars, there doesn't seem to be any explanation as to why other then perhaps they used whatever they had on hand at the moment.
