Well, this is pretty much last-minute notice. I've just heard that
there is a musical instrument auction being held in Vichy (France) on
Saturday (6/15/02), that includes 9 sarrusophones. I'm still waiting
for details as to what sizes, makes, etc. The website describing the
auction is at http://www.commissaires-priseurs.com/ - time to brush up
on your high-school French ;-) The full list of instruments offered
is at

objet/objet.php3?vente_id=53.
In addition to the sarrusophones, there are several ophicleides and
serpents, a sudrophone, a mullerphone, a double-belled euphonium, a
basset horn, a buccin, a 6-valved bass saxhorn, a few keyed bugles,
and more.
My spellchecker just exploded... ;-)
Enjoy!
