DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
Updated through online information from Andrew Mead. -- Console was not removed from the hotel upon the removal of organ (by Keats Geisler Organs) and deposited in basement closet in ruined condition. Console was purchased and removed by Jarvis Street Baptist, Toronto C. 1988. Console was later broken up for keyboards and other parts.
Database Manager on August 2nd, 2012:
Updated through online information from Danny Wesley Ray. -- I am an organist who had played the instrument at First Baptist Church, Dallas, Texas. I believe at least part of the organ was incorporated into the current instrument.
Database Manager on March 19th, 2010:
Identified through on-line information from Jeff Scofield. -- Relocated by Keates-Geissler in 1988 to First Baptist Church, Jackson, Mississippi, and combined with the church's 1940 E. M. Skinner & Son organ; substantially rebuilt by Quimby in 2004.
