The nucleus of my second pipe organ was the Kimball from the Olympic Theatre.

I watched this theatre as it was demolished during the summer of 1969. I worked at Harta Studios which was acress the street at 907 Pacifuc Avenue.

Capeguy508 commented about Console of the Wurlitzer theatre organ from the Oriental Theatre on Nov 12, 2016 at 12:48 pm

The Chinese art deco styled console was the only one of its kind ever produced by the Wurlitzer factory. In the theatre, its finish was originally a subtle gold-colored gesso “finger paint” design. It was refinished in an ivory with gold leaf accents for its installation in the residence. The original “Howard seat” shown here (instead of a traditional bench) was originally from the Salem, MA Paramount theatre’s Wurlitzer.
