  • The large organ of Grace Cathedral in San Francisco was built by the Skinner Organ Company. It was designed by G. Donald Harrison in collaboration with the organist of Grace Cathedral, J. Sidney Lewis. The organ is a donation to the church by Harriet Crocker Alexander in memory of her deceased husband Charles B. Alexander.
  • In 1952 the Aeolian-Skinner Organ Company overhauled the organ, changing the stop list. In 1973, Casavant placed the Bombardwerk and the Antiphonalwerk. The five-manual console was made in 1968 by Fratelli Ruffatti.
