Herald Steel Farm Living History Display.
I do about 4 of these events around my area a year. This one is at the private Herald Steel farm museum near Dover IL. I molded blanks, trimmed and shaved some blanks that had sat from a month previous. I actually molded about a dozen at the living history display and recorded an Uncle Josh cylinder. The hat is an original straw boater.

Nifty! It's things like this that will keep our hobby alive.
By the way, that looks like one heck of a brass horn. How long is it?

It is 5' long. It has an unusual step seam, it has 2 cones soldered together. I got it at the New Jersey show about 2003 or so, I wonder if it could not have been a recording studio horn for recording brass bands, they used a similar horn, and it does work great for recording bands.

Shawn you are truly the Edison of 2014. May you continue to experiment and perfect the art of cylinder production and promote the hobby in such a unique way.
