DETAILS
Exhibited in the 1992 OHS convention(s)
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
From the 1992 OHS Handbook: The Skinner Organ Co. Instrument was built for the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Malden, Massachusetts, and installed in a chamber behind grillework. After the Malden church closed, the Organ Clearing House relocated the organ In 1986, to the studio of Thomas R. Thomas in West Palm Beach, Florida, and it was restored there by Thomas-Pierce, Ltd., which subsequently offered it for sale. In due course, the Clearing House suggested it to the High Street Church and moved it there from Florida; David Wallace enlarged and installed it in Its new home. The casework was designed for the High Street Church by James A. Stillson of Dallas, Texas.
The original Great consisted of a leathered Diapason 8' and a prepared-for Clarabella 8'. Jason McKown replaced the original Diapason 8' with new pipes from the shop of Thomas Anderson, and installed a new Spitzflote 8' in place of the never-installed Clarabella 8'. The Swell had room for a prepared-for Geigen Principal 8'; Jason McKeown installed instead a Viola 4', actually a "Prestant" 4'. David E. Wallace added the Octave Chorus III and the Nazard 2⅔', utilizing blank knobs in each division.
