Notes

2009-10-27 - Identified through online information from Will Dunklin. -- I own the horseshoe console to this 2 manual, 3 rank unit organ. The console has a single row of colored stop tabs with each rank available at 16 8 & 4 on each manual along with various flute mutations and sythetic stops. The original ranks were a 97 note Stopped Flute, a 73 note Viole d' Orchestre and a 73 note Vox Humana. There was no combination action or crescendo pedal. At some later date, a 73 note Open Diapason was added as were various percussions. I do not know when these were added, but the workmanship in the console is very good. I do not know the location or condition of the chest, pipes or percussions. According to the Theatre Organ original installation database, the original cost of this organ was $1,960.00. -Database Manager
