Seek Chicago Paradise Theatre Wurlitzer Organ
By Mike Walter

Hi folks,  Here's a request that's sort of out in left field, but
what the hey!

A friend has a couple of recordings (LP) of George Wright playing
a five manual Wurlitzer Pipe Organ that was originally in the Paradise
Theatre in Chicago.  The recordings are on the HiFi label, #R702 &
#R710.  The organ was supposedly removed from the theatre and installed
in California someplace (possibly L.A.).

Does anyone know where this organ is/was, what the original
specifications were, and any other pertinent information?  Any
information/suggestions will be gratefully appreciated!

Best wishes,  Mike Walter
