ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

From: Tim Jones, March 2006

The Marbro slave console went, as best I have been told, from Marbro to the Chicago as the slave for that Wurlitzer, as by that time, one of the "original" consoles had been taken out.

Later, Stan Todd bought it and moved it to Millville, OH for the Shady Nook restaurant. Since it was just a shell, Peterson installed their first solid state relay for that organ. It had no combination action, so must have been quite an experience playing it (taking into consideration what was or was not playing, and the forklift for the lift)..

The restaurant closed somewhere around '98 or '99. The place is still there, but there have been rumors that some pieces/parts of the organ have been taken out. I wish I knew what left the building, but current whereabouts is unknown. One could assume it is possibly still there. Someone should probably try to preserve what's left of the Moon River organ..
