Wurlitzer "Style 230"
Factory date: December 29, 1928
Built for the Stuart Theatre, Lincoln, Nebraska, but apparently not installed there; one source shows that it was repossessed. In July 1929, the Opus 2011 was installed in the Paramount Theatre, Springfield, Massachusetts, where it is extant but in need of restoration.
