EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we see museum technician Richard Miller diligently working to restore the grandeur of a giant auyetephone. This remarkable instrument, built by Parsons with the intention of enhancing musical performances in large concert halls, had unfortunately suffered from some unsightly dents over time. Located at Shipley Art Gallery for restoration purposes, the auyetephone is receiving expert care and attention before it makes its triumphant return to the Municipal Museum of Science and Industry in Newcastle come October 1975. Its presence will undoubtedly add an enchanting touch to the museum's collection. The image captures Miller's dedication as he delicately works on knocking out each dent, ensuring that every detail is meticulously restored. His expertise shines through as he carefully handles this extraordinary piece of musical history. Transporting us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1970s entertainment scene, this photograph not only showcases an incredible instrument but also serves as a reminder of how music has always been intertwined with our cultural heritage. The significance of instruments like these cannot be understated; they are gateways into worlds where melodies transcend boundaries and emotions find their voice. This stunning print by NCJ invites us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind such instruments and those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to preserve them for generations to come.
