Note copied from a duplicate entry:
Database Manager on July 24, 2015:
Updated through online information from John Igoe. -- web page notes: "The organ is still in excellent condition and is virtually unaltered other than the addition of an electric blower in the 1920s. Even the leather on the bellows is original."

This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by John J. Miller, using information found in Vogelpohl & Spaeth company ledger, now in the collection of the Brown County Historical Society (New Ulm, MN).

The organ was installed as Opus 55 on March 12, 1909. Organ was purchased for $800. The organ is unaltered aside from an electric blower added in the 1920's.
