Database Manager on May 7th, 2017:

In 1946, Wurlitzer removed and crated the organ, then trucked it to Richard Vaughn's newly constructed residence in Los Angeles, California; several additions were made to the original eight ranks. When Vaughn purchased Wurlitzer's Op. 1942, a 5/21 organ in the Paradise Theatre, Chicago, Illinois, the Pacific Exposition Wurlitzer was sold to another enthusiast and removed.
