Database Manager on November 28, 2005:

Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This is one of the first four "Martini" Holtkamps built, as designed by Arthur Poister and Walter Holtkamp, and before the Pedal 16' Gedeckt was replaced by a 16' Quintadena. The organ was originally installed in a practice room in the Fine Arts Center. When that room was needed for weaving looms, the organ was moved to the Center for Campus Ministry, where mid-week worship was held. It was installed in front, on the left side and in the gallery. The four registers are: Principal, Gedeckt, Quintadena, and II Cymbal. The organ was sold in the 1990s to Todd Wilson for use in his home church in Cleveland.
