ACCESSORIES: Blower's Signal; Manual keys have celluloid naturals and ebony sharps. Pedal keys have maple naturals and walnut sharps. Pitch: +/- A=432.5. Wind Pressure: 3" (?). The organ sits in the front of the chancel, slightly elevated, in a rather ornate oak case. The façade pipes were originally multicolored (some traces of original paint remain on the backs of some pipes) but are now painted white with gold mouths. In order that the organist could have some sight-line to the choir to the left of the organ, the Swell is angled 45 degrees from the Great and keydesk. Hand-pumping mechanism intact and functioning. Early electric blower with 1/2 hp 1750 rpm century motor, PS frame.

Online update from David Kinyon -- The instrument is in need of a good cleaning, but otherwise intact and used on a regular basis. The manuals are very heavy, especially when coupled and almost to hard to press keys. It has an ancient one octave electronic chimes keyboard attached to the side that doesn't work well. The orignial water pump is there though disconnected. It sits in a small, dead room.
