  • Bertoia Auctions to Sell Magnificent Aaron and Abby Schroeder Antique Bank and Toy Collection: Part I of Live Gallery Series Slated for March 5-6
    Bertoia Auctions to sell magnificent Aaron and Abby Schroeder antique bank and toy collection: Part I of live gallery series slated for March 5-6 Partners in an international network of music publishing, record production and artist management, the Schroeders started collecting mechanical banks in 1963 VINELAND, N.J. – Another illustrious entry will soon join the list of legendary collections that have passed through the portals of Bertoia Auctions’ New Jersey gallery. As confirmed by company president Michael Bertoia, the Aaron and Abby Schroeder me- chanical bank and antique toy collection – considered by most to be in a league of its own – will be auc- tioned by Bertoia’s on March 5-6, with Part II sched- uled for fall of 2021. The Schroeders’ vast private collection encompasses the finest of late-19th and early 20th-century Ameri- can cast iron, including incomparable mechanical and still banks, ultra-desirable horse-drawn and bell toys, and rare cap guns and cap bombs. An extraordinary selection of early American tin and clockwork toys, including museum-worthy classics made by Ives, is beautifully complemented by an array of European tin that includes many boxed Lehmann and Martin character windups, tin autos, aeronautical toys, and penny toys. The Schroeders’ impressive grouping of Schoenhut toys is led by a prized 44-inch horse-drawn Hump- ty Dumpty Circus Bandwagon with driver and six musician figures. Additionally, the collection includes several delightful skittles sets, paper-litho-on-wood boats, and coveted turn-of-the-century boxed games. “In terms of quality, rarity and importance, the Schroeder collection is on par with those of Donald Kaufman, Max Berry, Dick Claus and the Perelman Museum,” Michael observed.

  • … Isn't Such a New Thing. Fever Started Long Ago!
    … isn’t such a new thing. Fever started long ago! CD Description The album you hold in your hands is the second CD, released by the band Sam’s Fever. It features 11 of Elvis’s greatest hits: “If I Can Dream”, “Way Down”, “Little Sister”, “Stuck on You”, “It’s Now or Never”, “Mystery Train”, “Are You Lonesome Tonight”, “Blue Suede Shoes”, “I Just Can’t Help Believing”, “Fever” and “Devil in Disguise”, re-interpreted by Sam’s Fever. The arrangements have a contemporary flavour, combining Latin, funk and jazz rhythms and a bit of soul. What is particularly interesting about this album is that it was not fully recorded in the studio. It contains 2 live tracks from our concert in Križanke, Ljubljana, while the song “If I Can Dream” was recorded at our show in Germany, and features Grammy- and Oscar-winning actress Darlene Love, who collaborated with Elvis in 1968, on vocals, and James Burton, Elvis’s lead guitarist from 1969 until his death in 1977, on guitar. Fever The title of this album, as well as the name of our band, was inspired by Elvis’s hit single “Fever”, originally written by Eddie Cooley and Otis Blackwell under the pseudonym John Davenport. The song was first recorded in April 1956 by R&B singer Little Willie John, who featured it on his debut album, also entitled Fever. The song made it to No. 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, was well received by both music critics and the masses, and was listed on several top music charts.
