I am starting to recover from the two thousand mile round trip from Oregon to southern California and the CAPS sale. I sold three out of the five machines that I took and the group from Oregon purchased some very fine machines including a Columbia BJ with mahogany horn, Berliner, Victor I (big case), Victor II, an unusual European machine, and a small tin machine. My big purchase was two original Victor posters. While there, we were invited to see two terrific collections and the experience was wonderful. The banquet was exceptional and featured a talk on tinfoil machines by Rene Rondeau. The CAPS sale was dealer friendly and my overall experience was very positive. Jerry Blais
