In the 1971 movie 'A Clockwork Orange' by Stanley Kubrick, in the scene where Alex comes home from prison (or rehab) he comes into the living room to his father, mother and a tenant that has been renting is room. Anyway, there is an organ in the room next to the couch. It is grey and red, and has the vintage tube legs. I have been looking but I cannot seem to see any kind of name on it.. comboorgan. com said it was an Ace Tone model but I looked pretty hard and it doesn't seem to match up...close but no cigar.
We collect old and vintage organs and this one piqued my interest, so if you know the name/brand and /or the model I would greatly appreciate it. Also if you know of any websites that could help if you don't know, please advise. Thanks in advance!

This is NOT a wooden organ, nor a Hammond B-3 (sorry, guys!) It is a small portable RED AND GREY with a handle in the middle in front and SILVER tube legs that get smaller at the bottom. It is maybe 2- 2 1/2 MAYBE 3 feet wide. The organ without legs is maybe 10" tall.

That's a Hammond B-3, they had a limited edition that flopped pretty hard (it was designed for diners in the mid to late 50s).

Shes right. It was originally sold to churches at low cost instead of pipe organ.
