2020-11-24 - Information from the Reuter Company via Ron Krebs:
The St. John’s organ is Reuter Opus 1915. The proposal was drawn up in January of 1976 for a 2-manual, 7 rank organ to be entirely installed in one enclosure. The cost at that time was $24,070.00, and it was delivered in December of that year. In 1982, correspondence in our files indicates that the balcony was enlarged by about 20’ and the organ console was to be moved toward the new balcony rail.
