Nativity Scene Organ Grinder Figurine
By Damon Atchison

Any Biblical scholars out there?  Apparently there aren't any for the
Fontani nativity scene figurine company.  Their vast assortment of
"collectable" figurines includes an organ grinder boy.  Perhaps he
serenaded the three wise men on their way to meet Jesus?  I saw this
nonsense at Bronner's Christmas Store in Frankenmuth, Michigan.

I'm having a great time in college, but can't fit a player piano in my
dorm room.  I'm living off music from my portable Victrola for mechanical
music enjoyment.

Sayonara!
