Ronald Damholt on October 31st, 2025:

Pipework for this instrument was built by International Organ Supply of Riverside, IL, its keyboards came from P&S Organ Supply of Suffolk, England, and carving of the organ's pipe shades was done by George Weissler of Evanston, IL.

Jim Stettner on October 30th, 2025:

Updated through online information from Marietta McPike [October 30, 2025]: I did sell it to a young woman who at that time lived in the DC area.  Her husband played trumpet in the Marine band.  So it moved to DC but I have no idea whether it is still there or not.

Jim Stettner on October 29th, 2025:

This entry represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through online information from Ronald Damholt [October 29, 2025]. The two manual 8' flutes share a common 12-note bass.
