The theater is what I've been working on from the first day of retirement.  The pipe organ no longer exists.  The room where the pipes were I divided in half, half for storage and half for a display room (see picture below). There are ten chairs, a sixty inch television, surround sound with a powered subwoofer, laserdisc machine with about 650 laserdisc movies, as well as a several hundred tapes, and a few DVD's, but no heating or air conditioning, that's what the blankets are for that you see on the back of some of the chairs.


The display room

The lamps, of which there are nine, were made for us by (Joe) Rinaudo's Reproductions, 3725 Park Place, Unit "E", Montrose, California 91020; Phone (818) 957-2077. He now has a wonderful web site. You can find him at    http://www.rinaudosreproductions.com
They are solid brass with two bulbs inside. I've put one white and one red bulb in each of them and can control each color independently with dimmers.

Joe has restored our gas and electric light fixture as well. I acquired it back in the early Carty Piano days from Cleveland Wrecking Yard. Of course there is no gas going to the lamp today, it's all electric.

The next photos shows some of our collection of E.T. Paull sheet music.
 

 

To the right, in the bookcase, is the collection of laser discs. The stove is decoration.
