Clark,

In 1990, at the AMICA Cleveland Convention Mart, I acquired what
appeared then to be an unusual AMPICO expression unit and companion
valve block.    I have since learned, from an article by Ian McDonald
in the Dec 73 issue of the AMICA Bulletin, reappearing in
Technicalities II, that these were from a Marque AMPICO upright.

I now have an instrument into which these parts could be fitted.
Unfortunately, I do not believe a tubing diagram for the Marque AMPICO
has ever been published, at least not in AMICA pubs.  If you would
consider sketching the tubing diagram, at least for the expression
units and valve block, I for one would be very grateful.

Thank you.

Regards,

Terry
