>*We've just learned that Roman's father was the conductor of the Chicago Mandolin Orchestra in the early 1930's. We've added a photo at the end of the photo list of Mr. J. Cnota with his orchestra. The photo is dated 1934 and was taken at Humboldt Park in Chicago. Please note the bass and cello in the photo. We don't have absolute verification that these two instruments in the photo are those in this auction but it makes sense that they are. We're guessing that Mr. Cnota had them  loaned to the musicians or may have acquired them after the orchestra/members disbanded. 
>Additionally, Mr. J. Cnota is the artist/creator for the amazing Folk Art being offered from this estate. 
>This will be an attractive sale in a very nice, WARM setting at the Flyway (formerly the Candle Glow). This is an easy access point off Highway 41 just a few minutes north of Green bay. Sale to be held indoors and will take place regardless of the weather! The highway is always kept clear this time of year! Good food, bar and restrooms!
