    Help please. I came into possession of this and have no idea where to go for help. All I know is that the Dinwiddie quartet used it. Not sure of value or who can restore it if it's worthwhile. Anyone who can help, I'd be very grateful. Thanks

      The trunk itself is of course a C.A.Taylor trunk that may or may not have accompanied the members on tour.
      The Dinwiddie Quartet was one of the earliest groups to record on vinyl.If in fact they used it. Personally
      I would not restore or refurbish a piece of history, I would consider donating it to display at museum for historical purposes. Just a thought, Maybe call the above link and see if they would be interested or able to offer suggestions.
