DETAILS
This instrument is: ExtantandPlayable in this location
Updated by Bradley Bonam, who has heard or played the organ.
Original cost of the organ was $7,000. Contract was signed January 4, 1923. The church is now closed three years ago and the building is for sale as of 11/1/2018. The congregation merged with a nearby Methodist church and no longer use the building. I was organist at the church from 2004-2007. I assisted Clark Wilson with some maintenance at that time. The organ functioned fairly well. The organ is still played from its original 1923 console.
Database Manager on May 5th, 2014:
An original installation. Identified by Clark Wilson, based on personal knowledge of the organ.
-- The organ is intact but basically unused; the 4-rank Echo has been severely water damaged and is no longer playable. The instrument included Harp and Chimes.
