Did older hospitals have windows in their operating rooms? I've never seen windows in modern OR's.

That's a Hammond Model D organ, from around 1939. This particular model has two tone generators, and produces a very rich chorused sound. The drawbar that is to the right of the sheet music holder activates the second generator. It is a shame that such an organ was left behind, but it is one of the heaviest organs Hammond ever produced.

Mind you, that's tens of thousands for a NEW stained glass dome. Imagine what an original would bring.

I know I don't have to ask any of you to not go and pull that dome out of the ceiling and sell it....

Well hopefully not all of it, Ack, because stained glass is very restorable when most of the panes are present.

One rock might not make a huge hole, but I'd still break the wrists of someone who would deface something that breathtaking.

Ever check the cost of a brand-new stained glass dome? Tens of thousands of dollars.
