The tall pipes on the left side appear to be listing outward. Those on the right side are all vertical.

In 1937 the Tellers Organ Company of Erie, PA rebuilt the prior instrument at the Cathedral. At this time the new casework was built and a new two manual mahogany console was installed. This was Opus 608. The contract price was $2,387.50.

The Tellers Organ Company also built the pipe organ for the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Puerto Rico, Opus 580, circa 1934.

humm very, very nice organ as a.m.t said , the Tellers Organ Company of Erie rebuild it in 1937. I would die to put my hands on that organ but the organ right now is broken. I had been waiting for them to fix the organ but it seems il have to keep waiting. On my opinion the organ got so unused, so that y its now on those bad conditions. Theres not many organ intrest here on Puerto Rico :C
