My Name is Philip Dayson.  I am a chemical engineer and live in
Vancouver, B.C.  (That's 150 miles north of Seattle, just north of the
border.)  I have been a collector for about 25 years and have an eclectic
collection of music boxes, organettes, pianos, organs.  Most of my
collection was purchased in England where I lived for over 25 years.

I am a member of MBSI, AMICA, and the Musical Box Society of Great
Britain.  I am interested in pneumatic restoration although I have only
ever rebuilt a few instruments.  I am quite delighted to have joined
this mailing list -- I only wish I had done it a long time ago.
