The La Grande Theatre was on the southwest corner of State Street and Broad Street across from the Post Office. It possessed a Teller-Kent 3m-10r pipe organ. The building has housed a beauty salon for many years.

Happy New Year everyone. I have been doing some research on theatre pipe organs and uncovered something of interest. As I had stated in an earlier post the La Grande Theatre had a Tellers-Kent pipe organ (Opus 376)of 3 manuals and 10 sets of pipes installed in 1926 for $6,950.00. This is from the late Dave Junchen’s Encyclopedia of the American Theatre Organ, Vol. 2. In that same volume, under Marr & Colton, there is another listing for Conneaut’s La Grande Theatre for a pipe organ of 2 manuals. No other information is shown for this listing which leads me to believe that it was considered but Tellers-Kent got the job.
Address is at 237 Broad Street. The building is currently being used as an insurance agency.
