Geneva Organ Company information


The Geneva Organ Company was an American manufacturer of pipe organs.[1]

During the age of silent films, the company was a small but notable maker of theatre organs. It produced organs under various names, including Geneva Organs, Smith Unit Organs, and Smith-Geneva Organs.[1]

Some Geneva organs that still exist in public venues include a 2-manual organ at the Palace Theatre in Luverne, Minnesota,[2] and a 3-manual organ at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles Illinois.[3]
