Deansboro Museum Auction
By Angelo Rulli

The closing of  Art Sanders' Museum in Deansboro, NY, marks the passing
of a legendary museum devoted to mechanical music.  It will be even
sadder if this passing takes place without any written acclaim. Is it
possible that an MMD member who was there would be willing to write
some sort of summary of the auction, and, if possible, even a word or
two about Art?

For posterity, it would be of value to have a written record of this
event. An article would be nice, a simple listing of the items at
auction would suffice. This could be printed in the MBSI News Bulletin
so that future collectors would have some reference.

I'd be happy to do whatever I can to bring an article to print. I never
made it to the museum, to my dismay.

Thanks.

Angelo Rulli
