Seek Book 'Great Theatre Organs of America'
By John van Kleef

Hello Everyone,

Years ago (I think it was about 1986 / 1987) I was at the home of
theatre organist Neil Jensen in Sydney Australia. He had amongst many
other very interesting things, two beautiful books that my eyes fell on.
They were:

1) Great Theatre's of America
2) Great Theatre Organs of America

I think these are the correct titles, but I'm not sure. Both books were
of big proportions, extremely heavy, lots and lots of pages, tons of
colour photographs, and I think, very, very, very expensive!

After I returned to Holland in 1989 I have been trying just about every
book-store in the Netherlands, but not one of them is able to find any
information on it. Maybe these two books were part of a limited edition
or a private release, I don't know.

Who can tell me more about these two books?  Maybe someone has them in
their collection and can give me the ISBN numbers.  Or otherwise, can
someone tell me how I can obtain these two collectors items?

I am very grateful for any reactions.

With musical greetings,

John van Kleef  <discus.records@cybercomm.nl>
