Database Manager on April 11th, 2012:
Updated through online information from Lanny Hochhalter. -- This was not an "Artiste" but what Moller called a "custom unit" organ. It had pitman windchests with duplex shifters.

Database Manager on March 18th, 2007:
Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ was free-standing and encased in the left corner of the rear gallery. The facade was mostly lattice-work with a few dummy gold pipes. The console sat directly in front of the case with the organist facing across the gallery - altar to the right. The organ had 4 ranks much like an "Artiste": Diapason, Stopped Flute, Salicional, and Trumpet. But it was a custom organ with Inter- and intra-manual couplers, and fewer actual speaking stops than a 4-rank "Artiste." The organ was in rough shape when visited 3/20/91. Top g 32 of the pedalboard was missing. And the church was already fund-raising to replace the pipe organ with an electronic substitute.
