A Reproduco piano/organ combination may have been used in the Strand.
Correct!
According to Bowers' “Encyclopedia of Automatic Musical Instruments” page 551, the Strand had a Reproduco organ made by the Operators Piano Co.
It’s very fortunate Operators decided to add a fairly lengthy list of the locations of some of their instruments in their advertisements. Nice to find out that a few of these theaters still stand.
Thanks MikeR.
