If anyone in the Boston area is interested in this, there's a book
called something like Electronic Musical Instruments or some such from the
60's or early 70's, a copy of which has been among the used music books
at Harvard Book Store in Harvard Sq the last few times I was there.  In it
are schematics for the Moog transistorized theremin from the 60's, the 
Mellotron, and a bunch of electronic organs and such.  Most of the stuff is
pretty ancient (e.g. not even up to modular synthesizers), but the theremin
and Mellotron stuff was fun to look at.
