Greetings,
Collectors from throughout the United States gathered at the 15th annual Antique Phonograph Show and Sale on Saturday, January 22, 2011. A dealer swap was held on Friday, January 21 in the parking lot of the Orlando Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites. There were approximately 60 booths filled with phonographs, records, cylinders, Nippers and collectibles related to the phonograph hobby. Robert Cole and Richard Brown are the wonderful promoters of this show. They are a class act and we are highly appreciative of the promotion and work it takes to have a successful show. If you did not attend this show, make plans for next year. The sales were brisk and the friendship and sunshine were incredible and provided a wonderful break from the Wisconsin winter. A film crew from the Discovery Channel was filming segments for a 2012 program celebrating the 135th Year of Recorded Sound. The fun in the sun with fellow collectors is wonderful for Cheeseheads from Wisconsin. We extend a big thank you to the promoters, Robert Cole and Richard Brown for their dedication to our hobby and making this show a success for all to enjoy. Our good friend Jack Whelan attended the show and does an excellent job taking photos of the show. As the song goes "Nobody Does It Better."
