Database Manager on October 7th, 2007:
Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- A postcard image of this organ shows an immense case on the platform at the front of the room. The facade clearly contains 16' Open Diapason pipes. The console is pictured on the main floor in the photo. I don't think this was the Municipal Auditorium as the exterior of that building looks somewhat Art Nouveau. The case looks like it could be Skinner (but it's not), or maybe Hutchings-Votey (like Woolsey Hall) or the Los Angeles Art Organ Co. (like the 1914 St. Louis World's Fair organ).
