Such a shame that Asheville no longer has the Imperial Theatre today!
This photo might have been posted before. I can’t tell because those links no longer work.
According to Bowers' “Encyclopedia of Automatic Musical Instruments” page 551, there was a “Roth’s West” theatre in Asheville equipped with a Reproduco organ made by the Operators Piano Co. I could not find a page for Roth’s West, so I am putting this here for the time being.
