Harmonica Quote:
"I play the harmonica. The only way I can play is if I get my car going really fast, and stick it out the window."- unknown
These colourful art deco harmonicas are one of my favourite collectibles. The colour combinations are sometimes beautiful and sometimes just plain ugly, but they do catch your attention.
Today's project 365 picture is of my grandfather's Hohner Suprt Chromatic Harmonica in the Key of C. This harmonica is probably over 90 years old, and they are still making them with little, if any differences.

I was intrigued by this little guy playing his harmonica on Main Street in Mendocino. He sat all alone with no guardian nearby, his little red hat on the ground beside him. I was surprised when I gave him some money that there was no money in his hat. I listened to him for about 15 minutes and watched as people, shoppers, tourists passed him by. No one stopped to listen and no one gave him any money. I don't know what his story was, but as people passed by he kept playing songs like "Old Susanah", simple tunes, but he played them with all his heart.
She was at a performance I photographed today. She was back-up for the lead person, and she was good! I'd love to hear her play lead.
After a hard night's work playing the harmonica at the blues bar in San Francisco, the best way to cool off after was a cherry popsicle.
