Originally a tubular-pneumatic
instrument, but was electrified sometime after W.W. II by a local firm,
William Bardroff and Son and a Reisner console was installed.
"At one time, Saint Paul's Church was one of the wealthiest Catholic
Churches in Baltimore City.
Having fallen on hard times, the Church has not repaired the organ and
may have been vandalized.
The Church's acoustics were wonderful and full organ was not to be
missed.
I often wonder what it would sound like, being repaired and fully
tuned.
Looking at Estey's pipework was a study in exquisite workmanship."
