The Jennings theatre opened on October 28th, 1916 with “The Tarantula”. Grand opening ad posted.
According to the TheatreOrgans dot com online database of original organ installations, the Jennings Theatre had a 2 manual, 16 rank Hillgreen-Lane theatre pipe organ, opus 471, installed in 1917 at a cost of $5,500. The blower serial number was 8024. Does anybody know what happened to this organ and where it (or parts of it) are today?
