A Hohner Super Chromonica Chromatic is to be sold at auction in Norfolk UK given to member of Dylan's wardrobe team on his 1974 british tour. The box is signed and is expected to fetch £400-£600!

I don't know the story behind it, but that box is from the 1930s.

You know, I've never heard Dylan play a chromatic.


Come to think of it, I never heard him actually play a diatonic ;)

An aquaintance of mine is an antique dealer who, over a couple of beers, whipped out an old hohner harp and claimed that Lennon gave it to him at a gig at Bath Pavilion in 1963
There is no signature so he will have ask Yoko for a DNA test in order to get provenance!:-)
