Melodica keyboards

Two Melodica, piano 27, by Hohner.  Blow into the mouthpiece, while pressing keys to play.  The keys are differently sized on each piano.  Both include the original carrying case.  I made a modification to the mouthpiece on one of the pianos by attaching surgical tubing in order to blow into the instrument while its on my lap or on a table, for easier playing.

Vintage Chessmen by Peter Ganine

A set of 'Classic' chessmen designed by sculptor Peter Ganine, 1961.  With the box, even.  Apparently this set is valued most for the reason that it appeared in some early Star Trek episodes as a prop for a type of space chess.  I like it for its modern look and vintage nature.  (swapshop)
