A 2/6 WurliTzer Theatre Pipe Organ, Opus 342, was shipped from North Tonawanda, New York on April 20, 1920. Buffalo is only 14 miles away so it should have arrived at the theater the same day. What happened to the organ after that is unknown.

Indeed, what happened to the theater, as is is gone from listings by 1941, unless it was re-named.
