Hello Control Booth,

The show I'm on is in need of an old style piano board. DC resistance plate dimmers, hopefully in a road style configuration. Or even old autotranformers (multiple channel!). The show shoots the 6th of December in NY.

We have money. And Teamsters.

Call the theatrical shops in the NYC area

- PRG, they were once 4th Phase, who was once Production Arts and may have old stuff in a corner. Darren Deverna is at PRG and comes from the 4 Star family

- Altman Rentals, Tony Sklarew if he hasn't retired. Or Randy

- 4 Wall (not likely, as 4 Star went under before 4 Wall came to NY, but maybe Al Ridella or one of the Cannons knows somebody, who knows somebody

- Joe DiNardo at the ETC NYC office, who knows everybody in the business in NY

- Lights Up in W Hempstead, ask for Frank Danko and find out of Glen (Prior owner when they were GSD) purchased anything like this from the 4 Star auction. Lights Up has a big shop with crap tucked away.

- BML in NJ, who seemingly doesn't throw things away, but might have when they moved out of Raritan.

- See Factor in Long Island City

- Goddard Designs in Brooklyn, Rosemary might know somebody who knows somebody.

- Litetrol Service in Long Island, Steve Short might have seen one somewhere and I doubt he has one in his shop (never seen one, they take up space and his shop is stuffed with old stuff).

- Theatrical Services and Supply on Long Island. Bob B. has been around forever.

Man that just made me want to take a trip out East on an old gear hunting expedition.

Start at LiteTrol:

HUGE autotransformers that were part of a motorized house light system.

Every kind of SCR dimmer module ever made, or so it seems. I know Steve didn't want my junk Strand 600's, he had plenty.

A Colortran Channel Track (or 2 or 3), the big desk model.

LMI touring racks

My old Strand Micro-Q

TTI stuff everywhere.

TONS of Colortran stuff, D192 racks, Patchmans, Prestiges, etc... I think C-Tran shipped stuff to Hicksville instead of Portland when NSI brought them out.

Monitors for days. Need a color monitor for a MicroVision FX ?. They have them - plural.

A wall of manufacturers literature bindings and operating manuals . Maybe 25 running feet of shelves, 7 ft high.

It's not your simple trip down memory lane. More like an acid trip down memory lane.... (just kidding SS)
