You might try to search for the Marx museums. I don't have their web-site, but I know there is a small one in Erie, Pa. & one somewhere in I think in Southern Ohio or WV. Hope this may help !!

Here's the link for the one museum.

If you aren't making any headway you might want to post your question on the Marx groups forum on Yahoo. There are some real Marx experts on this group

We really don't allow buying and selling, so pls conduct this sale (if any) via direct e-mails.
