St. Maries, Idaho
 
Back to the Idaho Original Theatre Installations page

According to the Junchen opus lists, the St. Maries Theatre had a 2/4, Style 55 Wicks (opus #458) installed in 1923.

According to Jim Stettner of Seattle, the instrument "was moved in 1945 by Balcom & Vaughan to Advent Christian Church at 1300 E. Olive on Capitol Hill and rebuilt/enlarged as their opus 417. It was enlarged to II/7 with both the Great & Swell independent. The console is original/extant, though somewhat rebuilt inside. I'm not sure what the original 4 ranks were.....I haven't been inside the chamber since 1991."
