[Phono-L] Wayne Show Photos Les Paul Museum
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.
