A picture of this note has been included.
In the 1970s and 1980s work was done to releather parts of the instrument and replace the pneumatic switching with a diode-matrix Solid State Logic control system. The original 3 manual console was replaced in 1984 with a larger 4 manual console. The 4 manual console shell appears to have been made by Klann Organ Supply and was installed by Julian Bulley and Philip Crowell.
The original 1917 console was placed in storage in the 1980s and was removed in 2022 by Nicholas Koch. The console shell was made of quarter sawn white oak, stained dark to match the casework, and had elaborate carvings under the key bed, as was typical of Wangerin consoles. Since the console was stored in an unheated environment, it suffered damage due to weather and rodents. The original console mechanisms, aside from the nameboard and expression pedals, were not present in 2022 and it was presumed that they were disposed of when the console was removed from the church in the 1980s. The keyboards were in extremely rough shape and not restorable. The console carvings however, are in excellent shape and have been preserved for reuse in future restoration work.
