2013-02-05 - Updated through online information from William Dunklin. -- Wurlitzer moved this organ from the Majestic Theatre, Boise Idaho, to the Ideal Theatre in 1928. It is a Style 3, II/7 originally in a free standing case. Opus 119 was moved a third time, to Trinity Lutheran in Seattle Washington. -Database Manager

2019-01-26 - Updated by Eric Schmiedeberg, who gave this as the source of the information: I owned the console at one time.. <br> <br>Consistent with the Wurlitzer shipping records and the setterboard in the console, this organ was a Style 3 Special in that it lacked a 16\' Bourdon octave. Other than the<br>absence of that stop tab in the Pedal, the console was consistent with a regular Style 3.<br><br>The Style 3 Wurlitzer is the earlier version of the Style 185. I have done a lot of restoration work on a 185 and compared the Style 3 setterboard with that of the 185. They are absolutely identical--if you factor the 16\' Bourdon back in to 119\'s stoplist, as I said.<br><br>The Style 3/185 in a standard free-standing case or a swell box would have been a misery to service. I have the Wurlitzer installation drawings for this model and the layout is so tight that the 25-note set of Cathedral Chimes called for have to hang outside of the box/case on the back wall. <br><br>It\'s just speculation, but my guess is that--given the Bourdon\'s normal placement in the chamber--the Bourdon was omitted to free up some space for the technicians to move around. You pick up a little bit over one foot of box depth across the back wall as a result. -Database Manager
