For years Nick Monios collected with a mission and desire to assemble a high-end group of phonographs, radios, records, music boxes, early cartoon books, prints, posters, high-end toys, and related items of all types. He was a perfectionist having the desire that his machines, and the items in his collection, were in the condition that they were when they left the factory.
