over the years i have found 100's of harmonica pieces, but never one like this which i am excited to have found! it is complete with lots of the wood intact found inside an old root cellar, must have been protected from total deterioration.

Now that's a rare find !!vanzutphen
 
Nice find ! I dont think its going play a tune hehe
 
Sometimes I wonder if everyone played the harmonica with all the pieces I find. Never found a complete one either. Great find!
 
Sweet harmony! That's a nice find!
 
Now that is neat finding a compete one, I've also found lots of pieces over the years and a few times everything together except any wood.

Any plans to help preserve the wood from further deterioration?
 
i have no idea on how to preserve any suggestions?
 
Very Nice!!

I always wondered if anyone ever found more then just the reeds, this is the first one I've ever seen with that much remaining. Good find!!
 
thanks everyone i appreciate the comments!
