When my wife's great aunt went into a home I bought all the house contents and to my surprise there was one of these tucked away in the back room.She was a teacher and also taught music at her home.Did I say it was mint still in the case,mine dates to 1938 and I or my son will have this to enjoy for a long time to come. R.I.P Kay and Thank you for everything you have done for us,you are sadly missed and will be thought about every time we bring this jem out for a run. - Jon Duffy - 2014-09-22
