Altered and relocated existing organ. Identified by William Dunklin, using information found in David Junchen "The Wurlitzer Pipe Organ, an Illustrated History". -- Opus 1325 was built in 1926 as a style F Sp, II/8 in 2 chambers, for the Brue's New Theatre in Miami, Florida. Wurlitzer repossessed the organ, added 1 rank and in 1928 sold it to the Cinema Theatre in Cleveland, Ohio. Later the theatre was renamed The Lake Theatre, and still later The Esquire Theatre. It was torn down in the 1960's. Fate of the organ is unknown.
