DETAILS
The organ was purchased by an individual who planned to install it in his home; that plan was never realized. When he died, the organ was donated back to the Lucas Theatre in 2004. A.E. Schlueter Pipe Organ Company of Lithonia, Georgia, was to renovate and reinstall the organ, as funds became available. The theatre abandoned the project and transferred ownership of the organ to the Atlanta Chapter of the American Theatre Organ Society which put it in storage.
