Database Manager on August 23rd, 2015:

The St. Louis Fox Lobby Möller was removed in the '40s. It was never played for shows due to union problems. (It had a player and the union wanted to use a real organist.) It was installed in the First Baptist Church of Mount Vernon IL. It is still there but only remnants. Wicks redid it in the early '90s I think. One of the Wicks tuners told me he has serviced it there. It has a plaque on the console saying it was from the Fox. --Al Haker (June 2012)

Database Manager on November 28th, 2007:

Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. Relocated in 1940s to St. Luke Lutheran Church, Chicago, Illinois. Replaced in Chicago by Levsen.
