The essay attached in "Documents" may not be 100% accurate, as it was pieced together from memory of conversations told me by various people years before. At the time of the conversations, documenting a path of ownership never occurred to me, so I did not write anything down at the time.

Please add any corrections, updates, or further information on this instrument's history so we have correct documentation for posterity.

There were wooden panels that had a scroll pattern cut in them that belonged in the case openings on each side of the case adjacent to the Great pipework.

Mr. Erdman showed them to me, but told me he didn't put them in for ease of access to the pipes.

The newly attached 27 photos of the Dieffenbach organ in Spring Glen were taken by Leo Erdman's son, Donald, with a Polaroid camera before the instrument was dismantled for disposal.

I (Jack Umholtz) took digital photos of the Polaroid photos. Donald was careful to keep his photos in order in his packet. I, therefore, was also careful to submit the digital photos in the same order to the Database.

I realize some of the photos are blurry, but I submitted them anyway, as the son of the owner saw fit to document this magnificent instrument to the best of his ability (none in the family were musicians or organists) before dismantling it. I, therefore, thought it equally important to submit all photos for review.

Identified through on-line information from Jack Umholtz. -- This instrument was installed as built except for the addition of a Kinetic blower and, at some point in time, a Tremolo, which was not activated via a drawknob, but had an "L" shaped wooden lever extending through between the left end of the Great keyboard and the first drawknob.
