Searching for info about a LOWRY ORGAN COMPANY organ

Dear Friends,

I hope that you ALL had a Merry Christmas!

I am searching for information related to my grandmother's LOWRY ORGAN (Chicage, Ill. Model# DSO-1) and have not found much (search engines: google, yahoo; LOWERY keeps turning up but I am not sure if it same company. Couldn't discern from LOWERY website or WIKIPEDIA search).

The organ has a heavy wood frame, two tiers of keys, and an internal leslie cabinet.

This organ belonged to my grandmother and may someday be handed down to me. My grandmother played the organ back in the 1920's-30's at the Palace Theater in Lockport, NY (playing to silent film primarily from my understanding). She purchased this organ during the 60's.

I am looking specifically for an operating manual to shed some light on the many switches the organ possesses as well as any electrical diagrams for future maintenance. Any information about the manufacturer would be great. In fact, ANY INFO (that might point me in a direction to research) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance to anyone that responds. Have a Happy New Year!
