Updated through online information from Richard Harrold. -- Originally a 4/20 Publix #1. Shipped from the Wurlitzer works at North Tonawanda, NY, 28th July 1931, to the Paramount Theatre, Oakland, CA. Sold to one Urban Braito in Benicia, CA in 1955. Removed to the Melody Inn Restaurant, Los Altos, CA in 1969. Spent time in storage, owned by one Steve Restivo. Enlarged to 42 ranks and installed in 1979 in the Paramount Music Palace, Indianapolis in 1979. Removed to Ken Crome's workshops in Reno, NV in January 1995 for a rebuild. Installed in Roaring 20s in Ellenton, FL in 1999. Restaurant closed in 2010, organ advertised for sale, believed in store in Florida. I was told a rumour that it would go into a new restaurant in Jacksonville, but all seems quiet on that front.
