Re: [ARSCLIST] When you die...
As one of Canfield's past customers,I would be interested in the details of this.I assume he died sometime before Mikrokosmos took over the business,but I don't know exactly when.I always sort of thought,they would end up selling off his collection.

While I am not quite sure I understand your point, I would like to share a few observations.
Not all commercial recordings survive in institutional collections. A case in point is the LoC acquisition of the collection of Dave Canfield. Another is the LoC purchase of duplicates from Peter Muldavin's collection of children's records.
