Updated through online information from Will Dunklin. -- David Junchen "The Wurlitzer Pipe Organ, an Illustrated History" lists this organ as a Style 260 Special, III/17, similar to their opus 1541 at the Grauman's Chinese. This organ has been moved to Birmingham, England, expanded to 36 ranks and installed in a ballroom at the National Motorcycle Museum!
