Oh my!! Summer is over. I have been in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for two weeks. It was awesome. 75 degrees and sunny every day. I did catch a cold, which has developed into bronchitis, but "a bad day on vacation, is better than a good day at work."
We are beginning to think Christmas at the Museum. Yes I know it is not yet October, but it takes alot of coordination and planning. The displays must be up before Thanksgiving, as opening day is November 28.
We have on display right now the OSU (Ohio State University) football program covers illustrated by Fred Machetanz. We got a big laugh over the cost of the program - 25 cents!! If you have been to any college games recently, or even high school, you know a program is way more than 25 cents.
Coming our way soon is a black and white lithograph by Fred Machetanz, Trailmates. What a great addition to our collection.
The Kenton Toy Collectors have been busy. They purchased 3 toys this summer to be added to the display. At September meeting, they decided to do a display of the plastic, remote control cars made in Kenton in the late 1940's (not at the Kenton Hardware Company). The cars are on loan from John Ramge. Stop by to take a look.
Keep following this blog, we will let you know what is happening at the Museum.
