Artizan Organ at Euclid Beach Park, Cleveland, OH
By Bruce Pier

After the Euclid Beach park closed the organ eventually wound up
in the possession of [contractor] Bud Hurlbut at Knott's Berry Farm
amusement park in Buena Park, CA.

I recall that Bud used the organ on the Dentzel carousel over on the
Lagoon at the Farm, near Independence Hall.

After he pulled out of Knott's the organ went to his then new operation,
Castle Park, in Riverside, CA.  He has recently (within the last few
years) sold that operation.  The Artizan and two Wurlitzers that were
on the Knott's carousel are still there.  The last time I was up there
last year they were all silent.
