08 Dec 03 - 02:02 PM (#1067904) Subject: Banjo Exhibit and Katonah From: GUEST,Bob Has anyone seen the new banjo exhibit at the Katonah Museum of Art? It is called the Birth of the Banjo and it is very cool! If you like the banjo at all, you need to see this exhibit. There is also a nice book that goes along with it. I do don't know who did this, but it really brings the instrument to life for me. Let me know what you think after you see it, is it as good as I think or not? |

Their ISBN prefix is 0-915171 Unfortunately, I can't find the book in either Books in Print or World Cat. Exhibition catalogues can be published in very limited numbers & be hard to get. If you really want it, I'd suggest you contact Elderly directly & see what they can arrange for shipping. |
