Notes

2018-03-02 - This was a console-only contract for 1930 Skinner Op. 819 that was originally installed at Temple Methodist Church in San Francisco; the church closed due to financial issues and the organ was moved by Aeolian-Skinner to Thorne Hall, who added the Solo Gamba Celeste at that time; the organ is installed in four chambers in the back wall of the auditorium, which has no balcony; the Schantz console was disconnected ca.2000 and the organ offered for sale. -Database Manager
