Notes

2012-12-25 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by William Dunklin, using information found in David Junchen "The Wurlitzer Pipe Organ, An Illustrated History". -- -Database Manager

2012-12-29 - Updated through online information from Jim Lewis. -- These photographs were probably taken when Austin's Opus #709 (1917) was in the theatre, considering the small-size screen and position of the orchestra. -Database Manager
