[78-L] Paul Mawhinney collection

[Greg Laxton]

The video link was to a vid that was a couple years old.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that he's now parting out his collection, 
by appointment only.

If anyone gets MAV-TV, the show Pack Rats did a tour of his facility along 
with Jerry's Records, both of Pennsylvania.
