      NOTES
Tracker action with Roosevelt-style pneumatic assists on notes #1-30.

The Pedal Bourdon and Diapason are tracker action; remaining Pedal stops
are pneumatic action.

Immaculate Conception, 308 Broad Street, contained (and I hope still
contains) an absolutely splendid large tracker by Adam Stein, who ran
Roosevelt's Baltimore shop and went out on his own when the Roosevelt
firm folded.

Stein's instruments are virtually indistinguishable from Roosevelts
in both design and very high quality of construction.

The Johnstown Stein dates from 1900, and is 2 manuals, 28 ranks in a
rear gallery location with a very imposing facade. Compasses are 61/30.

The church dates from 1907; the date on the organ nameplate may be a
contract date.
