An additional bonus are the dozens of rare historical photos and advertisements depicting similar instruments in their 1895-1930 heyday. Main shots (first and last) of instruments are all in scale to keep everything in perspective. As an accompaniment to the CD or a stand-alone book, it’s another over-the-top Gregg Miner production!
