New Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix
By Mike Ames

The Mills Novelty Co. is pleased to announce the opening today of the
Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) of Phoenix, Arizona.  The new 190,000
sq. ft. building on a 20-acre site is located in north Phoenix.

This $250 million project is already a significant presence in Phoenix.
An ideal showcase for MIM's diverse collections (now numbering 12,000+
items), installed on two floors of spacious, light-filled galleries,
the new building also will feature classrooms, garden courtyard,
performance hall, recording studio, restaurant, cafe, and gift store.

We at Mills Novelty are very proud to have been selected as consultants
to help with our specialty: antique mechanical musical instruments.  We
look forward to this truly world class organization's future
development.  We commend the enormous expenditure of both time and
money that has brought this museum into existence for the music world
and all its visitors to enjoy.

We all wish MIM the very best success in this endeavor.
