[Phono-L] CAPS show report wanted!
The show was about par. A few rarities, a handful large machines, tons of records and one movie star. The banquet was great, as the speaker was well versed in Edison's life history, focusing specifically on personality traits. Extremely interesting and worth the price. >From: Peter Fraser >Reply-To: Antique Phonograph List >To: Antique Phonograph List >Subject: [Phono-L] CAPS show report wanted! >Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2004 17:35:27 -0700 > >Gang - > >Remarkably, not one posting has arrived telling us how wonderful, or >crappy, or whatever-in-between, the CAPS show of a couple weekends ago may >have been. > >So what gives? did anybody go?

On a personal level, one of the reasons it took so long to update this time is
that my company has transferred me from Oregon to Dallas, TX. I had been
flying back and forth for awhile, then moved to a new house in Plano, Texas,
and then it took me a couple months to get online.
We drove across the country (which the company paid for) and all our stuff was
moved (paid for again by the company) including 1 records. 9994 of which
made it safely. The only loss of any significance was a Gene Ammons on Chess.
One benefit is that I finally have a "record room" and can truly organize my
records. But sorry Lennick, still haven't found the one you need.
The anti-benefit is that now I don't know any collectors in the immediate area.
I hope to be able to meet fellow record / phonograph collectors in the
Dallas/Fort Worth area soon. Are the any informal gatherings / trade shows in
the area?
All the best,
Ty

[Phono-L] CAPS show report wanted!
Okay, maybe I'm biased since I'm now editing the CAPS journal, "The Sound Box," but in my opinion it was an excellent show in every respect. The CAPS show seems to be growing steadily, and it is now equivalent in size to the east coast shows (Union still dominates all of them). It is also attracting more and more out of state visitors every year. What makes the CAPS show so much more special than the others is the "early buyer" opening on Saturday afternoon during setup, and especially the banquet on Saturday night. No other group does such an entertaining and informative event. The banquet is a great opportunity to relax and chat with friends. The quality of the meal itself has improved significantly in the past couple of years with a new caterer handling it. It's pretty remarkable considering they serve 100 people! What really sets the banquet apart is that each year a speaker is invited to give an informative presentation. This year's guest speaker was Jack Stanley, director of the Menlo Park Museum in Edison, NJ. Jack is incredibly knowledgeable about Edison, and he gave a hugely entertaining talk about Edison -- the man versus the myth. I'm sure everyone in attendance will agree that it was a sensational presentation. The show itself, like others of its kind, offers something for everyone. There were huge amounts of records, all sorts of parts, and machines ranging from common fixer-uppers to gorgeous high-end showpieces. In short, it was a lot of fun. The CAPS board, and especially Bruce Peterson who handles most aspects of the show and banquet each year, deserve kudos for the great job they do.

The banquet speaker from the Edison site was outstanding. I encourage all to put it on your calendar for next year!! It's always the second weekend in August.
