NOTES
This organ was originally built for Our Savior's Lutheran at their old location at 24th & Colby
in Everett, Washington. It was installed there by Möller representative Ernest Kuhn. When the
congregation built a new church on Mukilteo in Everett, they signed a contract for a new Casavant
pipe organ, and sold the Möller to First Presbyterian in Ellensburg.
The organ was moved to Ellensburg in November, 1967 by Alex Guenther. The front of the church was
used to create an organ chamber, and the altar area and chancel were moved forward.
In later years while the organ was under the care of Harold B. Curryer of Spokane, WA, a homemade
zimbelstern was added, and made playable from the Great Unison drawknob. Additionally, the Gt. to
Ped. reversible toe stud was also changed to Sw. to Ped. reversible, although the original label is
still present.
