Notes: The first photo is of the 1968 console and the second photo is of the 1942 console.

Aeolian-Skinner installed a new console and did other mechanical work as Op 1024-A in 1965. The organ was removed in the mid '90s. Currently, the organ is installed at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Amarillo, Texas.
