The present magnificent Art Deco instrument is one of the total of 261 that the company built at its workshops in Chiswick and subsequently at a purpose-built factory at North Acton, London. They were installed in cinemas and theatres throughout the British Isles. In the 1930s the cost was approximately £3,000, representing a major investment but one which was regarded as essential in the era of the silent films where it replaced an orchestra in the pit. It also continued to play an important role with the advent of the talkies where the organist entertained the audience between features. ++This organ was acquired by the father of the present vendor and has been stored for 40 years in a dry barn. Whilst we make no warranty as to its completeness there are several thousand components and although dusty these appear to be in reasonably good condition. Many of the smaller pieces have been left undisturbed, stacked in six wooden crates and still wrapped in newspaper printed in 1972. Some of the decorative glass is missing or damaged and the gold painted console has been affected by woodworm whilst in storage. The purchaser will be required to remove the lot within 14 days of the Sale.
