MICKLEY BUSINESS JOURNAL FOUND

  Karl Moulton adds: "I'd also like to announce that I was
  fortunate to uncover the whereabouts of Joseph Mickley's
  daily business journal which covers the years from 1840 to
  1848.  Yes, this is one of the "Missing Masterpieces" that
  fellow researcher and good friend, Joel Orosz outlined in his
  Asylum article from Summer 2000, p.73.  And NO, this
  announcement is not an April Fools prank.

  This is Joseph Mickley in a personal manner, the way in
  which none of us have ever seen before.  It is his daily
  musical business journal of his many customers, sales, repairs,
  travels, rents, domestic expenses, etc.  This is mid-19th
  century Americana at its best.  There are 573 pages of entries
  in Mickley's clearly legible handwriting.  Copies of this
  historically important work will be available later this summer
  for $79. plus $6. S/H.  As a special bonus, this reprint will
  offer Jacob Bunting's (close personal friend of Mickley for
  decades) 28 page biographical sketch about Mickley, written
  in 1885.  Orders are being taken now and this 600 page
  reprint is available exclusively through Karl Moulton at
