Thanks Joan. I guess I posted too soon (though reports from others would be 
 appreciated). I recognized the regulars like The Gfells, Charley Hummel, 
Steve  Oliphant, Mike and Carolyn Devecka and Tom and Sandy McCarthy. Quite a 
few were  not familiar to me. Probably know their name, but not their face.

[Phono-L] Wayne Show Photos Les Paul Museum

2013-10-22 Thread Robin Joan Rolfs
Greetings,

On a beautiful fall day in Wayne NJ the Mechanical Music Extravaganza was held 
at the Wayne P.A.L.  An informal Parking lot get-together was held at the 
Wayne P.A.L. on Saturday October 12.  It was larger than ever with dealers from 
throughout the world.

The show held on Sunday October 13 with the doors opening at 8:00 a.m. for 
early buyers.  The show was very well attended and we feel attendance is 
improving every year.  We thank Michael Devecka for putting together this 
outstanding phonograph show.

Photographs of the parking lot sale and show can be seen on the WIMAPS 
(Wisconsin Illinois Musical and Phonograph Society) website at:  

www.wimaps.org

You may also enjoy viewing photos of the Les Paul exhibit at  Waukesha County 
Museum located in Les Paul's hometown of Waukesha Wisconsin.  The museum opened 
a permanent 2000 square-foot exhibit called The Les Paul Experience honoring 
the icon who died in 2009.  It is the most comprehensive exhibit in the country 
on Les Paul.

He is known for inventing the electric guitar in 1929.  In 1952 Gibson Guitar 
began mass producing a guitar based on Paul's design. The rest is rock and roll 
history. Together with his wife Mary Ford,  he earned 36 gold records for hits 
including Vaya Con Dios and How High the Moon, which both hit No. 1. Many 
of their songs used overdubbing techniques that Paul had helped develop.

The museum is exhibit is more than just artifacts, it is homage to a man who 
was extremely proud of his Midwest home town and really wanted to be remembered 
as the Wizard of Waukesha.  WIMAPS members also visited his impressive 
gravesite at Prairie Home Cemetery in Waukesha, WI.

A reminder to all phonograph collector to join the Antique Phonograph Society.  
MAPS and APS have merged into one society and will appreciate your support of 
the phonograph hobby.  You can download a membership form at:
