Notes

2007-11-28 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2008-10-12 - Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -Database Manager

2013-01-25 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -Database Manager

2013-07-17 - Updated through online information from Joel S. Kumro. -- Upping visiting the organ in June, 2013, the organ is no longer playable. The blower will start, but only run for about 10 seconds before shutting down. The swell division suffered significant water damage and some pipework may have been removed. Otherwise, this instrument appears to be in original, unrestored condition. -Database Manager
