CRANK IT UP! Before the IPod...there was the Talking Machine!

History you can hear! You can experience the sound of famous voices from the past on the machines that they were recorded for, learn about Nipper the RCA dog and the history of sound recording in a program presented by James Constantian, a collector and member of The Antique Phonograph Society.  This program features hand-cranked entertainment circa 1900 through 1930. Come and see the roots of modern entertainment in action.

Open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
