Updated through online information from Thomas L. DeLay.
The organ was removed from the Amazon Theatre in 1935 by the E.C. Howe Company and installed in the First Methodist Church in Watsonville, CA. In 1960, the organ was purchased by George F. Thompson and installed and fully playable in his home on Echo Valley Rd, Salinas, CA roughly 1963-1992. In 1995 the organ was removed to storage in Salinas, CA and is slowly undergoing restoration and installation in a Dance Studio in Salinas.
