wunks Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I was searching the musical instrument collection of Oberlin College (USA) because a portion of it is a donation from an instrument collection near me (Deansboro, NY). They show a Wheatstone EC # 36189 dated 1958 that appears very similar to one (especially the bellows papers) that was a recent subject of inquiry here( although I can't find the thread). It's viewable on their web site if it is of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Kruskal Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I visited the Deansboro, NY musical instrument museum twice. Amazing collection. I would guess that would be the collection Wunks is referring to. Read about it here. Update On Fate Of The Music Museum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunks Posted November 14, 2021 Author Share Posted November 14, 2021 I played music with some friends last night and spoke for a while with the former supervisor of nearby Waterville NY who informed me that the auction went to a wealthy couple in the area and spent some time in New York City before being donated to Oberlin. The concertina referred to is the only one I saw listed in their collection. The donor is listed but I don't know if he is the donor of the whole collection.
