Fair Organs in Ramona Park, Grand Rapids, Mich.
By Bruce Pier

At one time Disney owned all three of the Ramona Park organs.
The only one that they still have is the one that Paul called
"Big Bertha", which is alleged to be a Limonaire.  It's on
display in one of the hotels at the Florida resort.

The other organ, "Sadie Mae", is in the hands of a collector,
the last I heard.  It was originally thought to be a Gavioli
but is probably an early DeKleist.
