2008-02-12 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ was the reinstallation (and enlargement?) of an existing organ - believed to have been an Aeolian, but which might have been a Los Angeles Art Organ Co. instrument. It was installed by Val Holzinger of the California Organ Co. before he founded the Holzinger Organ Co. The organ was later substantially rebuilt and enlarged by organist Donald Jon Vaughn over a period of many years beginning in the 1960s.
