I'm going to the Midwest Expo because I need more toys???  That's part of it I guess but also it's just a lot of fun.  Who else is going to be there?

It is, I agree but if I brought it home I'd be the one having to sleep in it... 🤣

To view: cross your eyes while looking at the two small images, when they merge into one it becomes 3D.

I would really like to go to this event since it is basically in my backyard (well 50 miles anyway). I work every other weekend so it will depend on me getting this weekend off.

It isn't that far away. I have been digging through my phonograph items and am gathering items to bring to the show. This should be a wonderful show with several exceptional dealers with plenty of great items for sale. Here is the link for more information:

I will be adding to the items I'm bringing up until the day I leave. If you need prices for what is shown, come to the show. If there is anything on your wish list, you will probably find it at the show. See you soon!!!! Ken Brekke

I haven't made this show before and I am not sure which day I might be able to attend. I understand that if you attend this show Saturday the cost is $15 a person and Sunday is free. If i am able to attend Saturday are these tickets available to purchase at the event or do you need to purchase these tickets in advance?

You can buy them at the door.

Try to make it Saturday if you can.  Sunday is not quite as good, many things already having left for a new home but if that's the only day you can make it, it's still well worth the trip.  Good luck!

Here are some more items I am taking to the show.

You certainly can buy them at the door.  There is also an early buyer available on Saturday if you would like to be among the first to get in and walk about the ballroom before general admission is open.

There are also some educational seminars which are free to the attendees.  Saturday the Rolfes will be talking about collecting Nipper items . Sunday there will be a short discussion about playing records  (for beginners),  a demonstration on caring for and cleaning cases, machines, wood and metal (same as last year)  and a musical demo and presentation on transcribing historic xylophone records.

 

Come both days if you can!

Well I tried to get a vacation day for either Saturday or Sunday off of work with no success. So I plan on just calling off of work and going on Saturday. Wife agrees that Saturday would be the better of the 2 days to attend.

Anyone know if there's a shuttle from the airport to the hotel?  I can't find anything on it.  Thanks!

Good question - - I'd contact the hotel about that.

More items going to the Midwest Music Expo. I sure hope it will all fit in my truck. There are two very rare horns for a Victor front mount machine with the floor crane set up, flowered horns, all brass horns, mahogany horn, an all brass horn that can be used on a rigid arm Victor, all brass horns for leather elbows, etc... Here is the link to the show information: https://apsblobdeve.blob.core.windows.net/imageuploadtext/ApsBlob1683128124389.jpg
