A couple years back, I had the opportunity to check out this beautiful 2 manual organ installed in the Old South United Methodist Church in Reading, MA. Original builder was John D. Brennan of Reading, MA which was acquired and rebuilt in 1913, rebuilt again in 1936 by EM Skinner & Son as their Opus #501 and rebuilt for a third time in 1977 by Kinzey-Augerstein as their Opus #R-18.
