Additional Information | The Monkees was the name of a band created for a TV show by the same name in 1966. The band was comprised of Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith, and Peter Tork. The show ran on NBC from 1966-1968, but the pop rock band gained real popularity, with hit songs such as “I’m a Believer.” In the 1980s the group would go on tours and special appearances, and they put out a 1996 reunion album. The television program won two Emmys in its first year and the group had four albums hit the Billboard chart in one year. In the years after the death of Jones and Took, Nesmith and Dolenz went on tour as the Monkees once more in 2021. |

Additional Information | Composed of “choice grains and seeds,” Red Comb Poultry Feed was advertised in 1910 as being, “a carefully balanced ration for Chicks from the ‘Cradle to the Grav-y’.” The Edwards and Loomis Company, manufacturers of Red Comb Poultry Feed and Red Horns Dairy Feeds, kept an office in Chicago. This button was found in the walls of a house in Chicago built in 1905. Was the button received as a promotional item, dropped, and lost in the house in the early 1900s? How did it get there? The mystery may never be solved… |

Additional Information | Vic Firth, a percussionist in the Boston Symphony Orchestra, was unhappy with the quality of sticks available to him in the early 1960s. He began to craft his own drumsticks to suit his needs, by whittling wood or using a wood turner. Word spread, and the craft shop that he started in his garage has grown into a company with over 200 varieties of drumsticks to suit an individual percussionists’ needs. |
