BASH auction. Goods were being stored at BASH (Building a Scholastic Heritage) headquarters, 1130 Commerce St., as the group geared up for its annual auction to be held at the University of Puget Sound Fieldhouse on April 27-28, 1973. Approximately $200,000 worth of donations would be ready to be snapped up by eager customers, including this antique Edison machine. An unidentified woman is pictured on March 20th testing out its sound. Some of the items, of course, could not fit inside a building - a school bus and a newly built Twin Lakes duplex, for example. Proceeds of the auction supported five private schools in the area, including Annie Wright School, Aquinas Academy, Bellarmine Prep., Charles Wright School and St. Leo's School. Photograph ordered by ADPR Group. (TNT 3-25-73, A-15-article)
