Notes

2006-11-03 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was ordered thru Sherman Clay & Co. in San Francisco - which is what the nameplate says. But the organ was built by Wicks. The console is not a full horseshoe console as one would find on a theatre organ, but a more moderate style that was popular with Wicks during the time they were affiliated with Robert Morton. Despite being on D-E unit chests, the six 73-note ranks play as straight ranks on the manuals. The Gt. Melodia is extended 12 notes in the bass for the 16' Bourdon. The Pedal 8' Flute is borrowed from the Swell Stopped Diapason. At present (2006) the organ is unused and available. -Database Manager
