Record details

The printed headline was not recorded; the title above is a description of the item, and the quotation marks are the citation formatter's. The notice describes a pitchfork cello, "said to be the only one of its kind," in Orben Sime's collection. Research file 01 records the item among fourteen Chronicling America hits all "retrieved and read," but does not say whether from the page image or the machine text, so the weaker grade is entered here. Its value is that it owes nothing to Reindahl, to the Reindahl Registry or to Leary: it is an independent period attestation that Sime had the instrument. It does not say who built it.
