Notes

2008-08-06 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This was a style 135B WurliTzer which was originally built for the Hippodrome Theatre in Portland, OR. It was relocated in 1928 to the Liberty Theatre in Billings. In 1931, during a theatre remodeling, the owner - Max Pregger - was convinced to donate the organ to First Presbyterian. It was later relocated to the Bob Richards Residence in Mesa, AZ. In 1986 it was sold to Ron Kemper in Kalamazoo, MI. The console was in storage. -Database Manager
