Biographical History

The Skinner Organ Company was established in Boston in 1902 by Ernest M. Skinner, and was incorporated in 1919 with Arthur Hudson Marks as the primary share holder. On January 2, 1932, the firm merged with the Aeolian Company to become the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Company. The firm reorganized in 1970 and moved to Randolph, Massachusetts, and was bankrupt by 1974. The Skinner and the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Companies were the two leading American organ-building firms of the first two-thirds of the twentieth century.
