2013-06-14 - Updated through online information from William Dunklin. -- Can find references to neither a Wurlitzer nor a Grand Theatre in Marion Indiana. There is one incomplete reference to the Royal Grand Theatre in Marion Indiana listing a Page organ, but no address, date, nor size of the organ. Any additional information would be welcome. -Database Manager
