Jim Stettner on March 16th, 2026:

This listing represents the installation of a used organ. Identified through online information from Michael Dirk [February 23, 2026].

The organ was originally built for the Capitol Theatre in Vancouver, BC. In 1965 it was sold at auction to Jim Tarling of Burnaby, BC. and stored in his father's home also in Burnaby until a home addition could be built. The addition was made in 1972 and the WurliTzer installed thereafter. Jim advertised it for sale in the March 2020 Theatreorgans.com classifieds, but to no avail. It resided in Jim Tarling's home until May 2025 when it was packed up by John Struve, and transported to Toronto where it resides in temporary storage, soon to be installed in an instrument museum in Orangeville, a NE suburb of Toronto.
