Database Manager on February 12th, 2016:
Organ relocated without any change. Identified by David Poile, using information from this web site: http://www.flentrop.nl/orgelbouw/oberli_ohio_stu0.html. <br><br>According to Flentrop Orgelbouw, this one-manual, six-stop positiv organ with pull-down pedals was built in 1957 for Harvard University (likely for the Busch-Reisinger Museum before its delivery of the famous 1958 three-manual organ). It was moved in 1959 to Oberlin College.<br><br>Oberlin apparently has two of these instruments, the other constructed in 1956, originally for the 1956 AGO convention in New York City.
