Hello all!
I've been reading the digest for several weeks, and figured that it was
about time to jump in with both feet. I'm Todd Augsburger, a (small
town) central Ohio resident, and am interested primarily in smaller
mechanical musical instruments and reed instruments.
Current collection consists of: (2) pump organs, a folding pump organ,
roller organ, portable victrola, cabinet Edison Diamond Disc, Edison
cylinder, Rock-ola jukebox ('30's 78 style), Pinball machine (a gift),
hand-constructed non-antique harpsichord. Probably some other odds and
ends that I can't recollect at present (poor memory). If anyone is
interested in details, or wants to strike up a conversation, just ask.
I hope to find "deals" in the future on other such instruments, as well
as adding inexpensively(!) other types. (For instance, I had to sell a
player piano a few years ago because of space, and now I miss it!) So
if anyone has a true bargain, drop me a line.
I'd be interested to hear about some of the "rarer" reed instruments
that are out there, if anyone would like to share.
- Todd
