George, by "free presentation" do you mean that you can come even if you didn't have a show ticket for Friday? The reason I ask is that, while I will be an early buyer, my wife, who will be most interested in the doll will not. Will she be able to come to the presentation?
Thanks,
Jim

"The Sound of the Edison Talking Doll" APS presentation is free to everyone: Early Buyers, Vendors, Collectors,the General Public, Husband, Wives and Children.

The general public will need to enter through the Saloon (main parking lot entrance) and than venture to the Main Museum Theater. (by the ice cream parlor) Signs will be posted.

Robin & I look forward to sharing Edison's most famous toy that paved the way for the Edison phonograph. Hear the first recorded entertainment cylinders that were sold to the public made by the first paid recording artists.

Enjoy a Donley's Friday Night buffet before the presentation. (fee charged) Meet the Edison dolls and and enjoy and evening with fellow collectors.
