"Just such a thing of beauty is San Sylmar, the Merle Norman Tower of Beauty in Southern California. Its loveliness can only increase with time, and its beauty does indeed creat a quiet bower for those who come to see and hear the sights and sounds of San Sylmar. San Sylmar itself is functional -- it has a purpoese; to preserve, perpetuate and exhibit the beauty of finctional fine art for the enjoyment of all who come to see the private collections of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Nethercutt.Nearly every item exhibited . has been fully and exquisitely restored to its original capabilities. Classic cars came first in the Nethercutt's collections, and the mascots, or hood ornaments, followed naturally. The large collection of automatic musical instruments began with a very beautiful small musical jewel box.Eventually, the Nethercutt collection grew to the point where adequate space was sacking even for storage . San Sylmar was the obvious solution, and construction was begun in 1968. In August 1972 the collections were displayed to the public for the first time. A visit to San Sylmar is more than just a trip back in time to the early days of automobiles and automatic musical performances. It is a feast for the senses -- total immersion in beauty. In [these pages], we have tried to bring you the very best." - excerpt from the preface.
