This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location

Carl Scott Zimmerman on January 8th, 2023:

This church was erected in 1852, and was extant in 1863. By 1864, the building had become the hall of the St. Louis Dramatic Association, and in April 1867 it was put up for sale. (Source: city directories and newspaper articles) Since the address no longer exists, it seems safe to conclude that this organ is not extant.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

Identified through information in the Pilcher factory ledgers, a handwritten list of organs and notes on the firm's history, and an emended copy of a list of organs from a catalog c. 1870. For more information see the document referenced below.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

54n man, 17n ped.
