Notes

2004-12-21 - Information identifying this instrument from the Austin Organs, Inc. web site, accessed December 20, 2004: http://www.austinorgans.com/organ-research.htm. -Database Manager

2021-03-04 - Thought the year is hard to read in a photo, it looks like Austin supplied a new (present) console in 1949. -Jeff Scofield
