I am responding to the Sept. 24, 2004 post of Organ-ized.
This is such a wonderful thread of information but I want to give the readers some good news. The Brooklyn Fox Wurlitzer was not destroyed but rather found a home at the Fort Wayne Indiana Cardinal Music Palace before coming to rest here in our home in Gig Harbor, WA. It was moved here and installed by Ed Zollman and a bit can be read about it below.

Often it is said that when a lady gets a new gown, she also gets a new personality. This may well be true of this lady, who started life wearing gold and ivory in the Brooklyn Fox Theatre in 1928, changed to bright royal blue and gold when she resided in the Cardinal Music Palace in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and now, in her new attire, presides over the home of Richard Wilcox [Ed, now called “Wurlitzer Soundview Manor and Gardens” and owned by Barbara Hammerman and Raymond Lavine].
