A few months ago, we received a donated item: a fairly large framed certificate from the American Federation of Musicians (formed in 1896) that was dated August 20, 1899, marking the affiliation of the Lockport Federation of Musicians, Local 92, with the national organization.Being a musician, myself, we hung it on the wall next to my desk and the photocopy machine where it can easily be seen and ignored every day by anyone in the office...except until today when something unusual was noticed.
