Notes: This stop list was printed in the November 1949 issue of The American Organist at around the same time a slightly larger 3-manual studio organ was built. The pipe count of 1327 for this organ does not match either Op. 1130 as listed in the OHS AS/EMS Opus List or its cousin, Op. 1126. The TAO write-up stated that the organ described was for the studio of Catharine Crozier.
 
The pipe count (232) for the IV Plein Jeu is odd, but given then-TAO editor T. Scott Buhrman's fussy penchant for things being done the right way (his way), it must be accurate.  JS
