Cruising through Ebay just now & pass by this classic ad for sale: Earn $5 to $15 per Day We will teach you Piano Tuning, Voicing, Regulating and Repairing, quickly by personal correspondence. New Tune-a-Phone Method. Mechanical Aids. Diploma recognized by highest authorities. Niles Bryant School of Piano tuning If you want to see the real thing:http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1497555888 I wonder what the heck the Tune-a-Phone Method is/was? Listen to a tone over the phone? Amazingly enough, the ad shows a woman standing at an old upright (new at that time I presume) with some kind of stethoscope-type thingee hanging from her ears and going to some little gizmo. Perhaps that is the Tune-a-Phone!?!?!?! Anyone ever hear of such a thing or know what it is? That's all the fun for now. Back to work. Terry Farrell
