Hi.  The Aeolian pipe organ Opus 1320 is alive and well and is located
in Baldwinsville, New York, which is near Syracuse.  This organ
initially was purchased in 1915 by William Wrigley Jr. and installed
in his home at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.  This organ is listed in Rollin
Smith's fine book, "The Aeolian Pipe Organ and Its Music," as a 11/25,
however it actually has two manuals plus pedal and 22 ranks if you
count the harp and chimes.
