I apologize if somebody has already posted this, but it
seems that Elderly is selling the John and Rudy Dopyera
collection. The whole thing, including the workbenches.
It's being sold as a collection.
From looking at the list, most of the collection falls
into the "other" category of resonator instruments; very
few square neck guitars. But if you've got a sizeable
inheritance burning a hole in your pocket and have always
wanted a fiddle with a hubcap, now's your chance.

Hopefully it'll go to a museum or a serious collector.
I'd love to see it in the instrument collection at the
Smithsonian.
