Auction at the "Organ Grinder" Restaurant
By Colin Hinz
Here's more complete info on the auction. There actually isn't a lot more info related to musical instruments, sad to say. Much of the ad is devoted to an inventory of the restaurant equipment. Yes, in case you're wondering, this auction house specialises in industrial and commercial bankruptcies. Thus, bidding on the instruments could be completely haywire: amazing bargoons or else "antique collectors" paying ludicrous fortunes for unimpressive old stuff.

So there you go! If I manage to get from the auctioneers a more complete list of the musical instruments, I'll send it only to interested parties (not to the Digest).
