World Famous Musicians Estate! 60 year accumulation!

After 3 months(!!) We are back with this fabulous 1954 Mid Century home located in a beautiful neighborhood in La Canada. (DUE TO THE CONTINUING PANDEMIC, WE WILL BE ASKING YOU TO PLEASE WEAR A MASK WHILE ATTENDING THE SALE, AND WE WILL BE IMPLEMENTING SOCIAL DISTANCING INSIDE THE HOME. THERE WILL BE A WASH STATION, GLOVES AVAILABLE, AND HAND SANITIZER) The estate belonged to Alice and Eleonor Schoenfeld, long time USC music professors, but more importantly, a world famous violinist and cellist duo that toured for many many years, influenced a generation of musicians from around the world, were instrumental in opening up China to classical music and the chance for students from China to study in the US, where they have made their mark in the classical music world to this day. If interested, there is plenty of internet information on this famous pair for you to read.                                                              It has been my honor and pleasure to handle this estate, which is a time capsule of their lives and careers. First of all, the amount of vintage clothing is amazing. Hundreds of dresses, blouses, etc., hundreds of shoes, scarves, purses, most of which were well preserved in garment bags and plastic. A nice array of vintage perfumes, night gowns, furs are also in this estate.                                            We have some nice midcentury furniture, vintage lamps, artglass, pottery, costume jewelry, Wall art and paintings, memorabilia, a huge selection of antique and various books ( much of it music based) stationary, kitchenware, classical CDs, vintage Brown Jordan and other patio furniture, and an old 60s Fisher Stereo cabinet .                                       There is a vast array of music, music scores, video and real to reel tapes of what I assume are old performances. Lots of antique music as well.                       Also in this sale is a vintage Mason and Hamlin baby Grand Piano, their personal piano for many years. If only it could talk- the many intimate home concerts and famous people who tinkled those ivories over the years!! Its your chance to own a treasured part of their history!!                      There are several violins and violin cases, including two Jaeger cases, and a Musafia double violin case with humidifier gauge! We also have a vast collection of presentation gifts from colleagues, associations, and students from over 40 years. Silk screens and painted scrolls, laquer boxes, Asian cloisonne and artifacts of various types.                               Included in this sale are three vintage Mercedes cars, all one owner cars! A 1980 Mercedes 300 D ( diesel) with only 150,000 miles ( in excellent overall condition, excellent original interior all intact), a 1995 Mercedes E 300 Diesel with 102,000 miles ( excellent original interior, few slight bruises on the exterior), and a 1999 low miles Mercedes  E 430, again in excellent condition, interior excellent as well. All three cars have always been garaged. And all need to be sold, and can be sold before the sale. Feel free to call me with any further questions on these cars.                                                                   As always, everything is priced to sell!! We want to sell it all, and we only have two days to do it! So come on by, have some fun, find some treasures and history to take with you, and we will be creating a safe space to for your attendance. Doors will open at 9 am Saturday and Sunday morning. I will be putting out a first entry list the day before the sale, and we will be limiting the amount of customers in the home at any one time...for safety reasons.
