DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
Updated through information adapted from E. M. Skinner/Aeolian-Skinner Opus List, by Sand Lawn and Allen Kinzey (Organ Historical Society, 1997), and included here through the kind permission of Sand Lawn:
Electrified by Durner ca. 1920.
Database Manager on November 9th, 2006:
Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ presents something of a puzzle. The Willcox opus list has an entry for 1872 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, but it says Presbyterian Church. The organ pictured on the Trinity website was recessed into a chamber on the right side of the church where the sanctuary narrows to form the chancel. The façade - which was an ornately stencilled pipe fence - faced into the church.
