DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Updated through online information from John Speller. -- According to http://theatreorgans.com/toronto/history.html this organ was sold to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in a bankruptcy sale in 1924. The current organ is a relocated Wurlitzer theatre organ. However, the photographs suggest that the current casework is the casework from the Legge organ.
