    As long as the serial numbers of the 50s Les Pauls were known, they'll turn up again at some point.

    Sad to see that he may well have died because Trump refused to fit sprinklers.

    Sad story, he sounds an interesting character.  And a bit of a hoarder, like myself....

    Shame the fire wasn't in another apartment in Trump Tower full of gold tat.
