I am sure they would have shipped to Panama, too - but it might have been slightly more expensive than to Germany (I paid a mere 15 Euros shipping fee for the whole batch!!!).
I'll start scanning and posting probably next week (subject to the revocation by Mr. Henbury-Ballan) . After gross examination 60 to 80 percent are worth to be given away to the eyes and hands of pianophilians (and Possible Moles
).
Alfred, I expect you have vast resources in antiquarian music, yet you are able to sort through these limitless quantities of useless "hausmusik" gathering dust and extract many unknown masterpieces, unknown master editors, premiere editions, etc. We will never see the end of the digitizing of all such musick in my lifetime, but am satisfied to know that even now my digital library contains enough masterpieces to revel in for the rest of my life......and yet there is more to come!

And... the joy of experiencing a new piece for the first time.
