    Virtual Vault Wurlizter History
    Seasoned for a Season...

    This "Limited Engagement" is in honor of Michael Shea and the 100th Anniversary of Shea's Buffalo "Wonder" Theatre. At Shea's, this bourbon was uniquely aged with the help of Hartman's Distilling Company and our own theatre organ. For the entire 2024-2025 season, four different barrels of bourbon were nestled within the organ chambers of the Mighty Wurlitzer "285 SPECIAL", absorbing the rich tones and music of our centennial groundbreaking season - infusing every note and acoustical vibrations into the charred rye and wheated bourbon barrels themselves.

    --- Special Thanks ---
    "Friends of the Buffalo Theatre" and the thousands of volunteers that saved and helped restore both Shea’s and the Mighty Wurlitzer for future generations to come. Raise a glass to a century of music...

    The Mighty Wurlitzer Organ

    Made by the Rudolph Wurlitzer Company in North Tonawanda, NY and built into the very walls of Shea’s Buffalo Theatre itself in December 1925, this century-old organ was rescued and restored by the Friends of the Buffalo Theater.
