Notes
2019-11-11 - According to a Facebook Wisconsic Organ Scene post by David Bohn on November 11, 2019, <i>"...it hasn't functioned since the 1950's. It's a later instrument, from 1906, with tubular pneumatic action and (intact) membrane windchests, but, thanks to the fact the building is not heated, the keyboards on the keydesk have warped to the point that the keys won't go down and a lot of the tin/lead tubes crystallized and crumbled. In addition, a significant amount of the Swell pipework was vandalized in the late 1960's.</i> -Database Manager
