[Fredslist] a weird request from Anthony Bellov

Hi on this RAINY and dismal day - - the perfect day to put out this weird 
"All-Alert."  WARNING: This is going to sound REALLY bizarre...

The Merchant's House Museum in Greenwich Village, as I'm sure you all know 
by now, installs full Victorian mourning for a special exhibition each 
October. In keeping with their mission to interpret NYC history with as much 
accuracy as possible, last year they added a recreation of a mid-19th 
funeral service to the schedule. It was a smash success and they are booked 
to do it again this year - conduct a service, carry the coffin out of the 
House and walk it to Marble Cemetary where a special tour will be conducted 
for the "mourners."

Due to NYC bureacracy and general foot-dragging by the Parks Department, the 
coffin promised the Museum will not be ready in time. This is a serious 
setback for the Museum. We are putting out an all-points bulletin to try and 
find anyone who might (strange as it seems) have a spare antique-looking 
coffin handy which they would be willing to lend, donate, or sell for a 
moderate price to the Museum.

I know this seems weird but it's totally on the level. Any leads or help in 
this matter would be ENORMOUSLY appreciated. The Museum is really behind the 
8-ball with this situation.

Feel free to contact me - Many, many thanks,

Anthony
