Band Organ Collector in Atlanta GA
By Steve Matta

I'm planning to visit Mr. Charles Walker, here in Atlanta, some time
this week (maybe today if he can squeeze me into his schedule).  He has
two 1920s-vintage carousels and five band organs (including a Mortier)
in his collection.  I had no idea that these were in Atlanta until last
week!  I'm planning to photograph them and maybe shoot some video.
I'll share whatever I come up with!

I seem to recall some casual mention that Giovanni Zanin was coming
to the US to visit -- has he come and gone already?  If not, what is
his itinerary?

 [ to Italy tomorrow, 9 July.  I hope to hear from him soon.  I bet he
 [ had a wonderful time!  -- Robbie
