Here I am lurking again -- I love reading the MMD.  I have one of
those signed John McTammany books with a personal inscription to the
recipient.  The lady from whom I purchased my Ampico included it with
the piano.  Her father represented Mr. McTammany in some of his (many?)
legal battles over the patent.

Just thought I would throw this piece of information out for anyone
interested.  Thanks!
