To Save Money for the show - We could advertise the show through our websites and soda-machines.com so that it would not cost a great deal of money. Insurance, I dont know - I guess the town just handles that when we have our festival. People walk down town everyday of the week here in Granite and I think if they fall down, it is there own problem - I have never heard of anyone going after the town to be compensated . One time about a year ago, there was a leaf and tree chopper parked on the side of the road picking up limbs, hooked to a town truck with yellow flashing lights. The Speed limit was 20 miles per hour. A red small 2 door car came flying by, hit the fender of the wood chipper and it flipped the car all the way over on it's top. The Wood Chipper was setting still at the time. The lady tried to blame the town for this, however when the police arrived - they gave her the ticket and told her she did not have a case. That wood chipper parks there every thursday and has the right-of-way. The two men that run the wood chipper are named Possom and Johnnie. Possom almost got flattened between her car and the fender of the wood chipper.

I been to your place and the town reminds me of the movie ( It's a wonderful life ) Untill I get to your warehouse and then it"s like I entered another world. I have never seen so many unrestored near perfect original machines in my life. That was the time Steve Ebner from Funtronics and I came down and spent the night. What a great time we had, untill the trip home. We were hauling 7000 pounds of machines and Soda in my trailer that was rated for 4500 pounds, Truck was also loaded. 7 blown trailer tires later and 3 hours stranded along the road in the middle of the night miles from no where, I could go on but don't want to put you to sleep. Steve and I made it home a day later than expected. We now look back and laugh! I'm sure many of you had herd the story from Steve. Next time any of you talk to Steve from Funtronics, tell him Curtis from memory Lane Restorations is thinking of making a Soda run to Antique Vending and would like him to join me again.

Hi Brian, I just ordered the art deco mirrors for the bottom cabnet. They have to be cut on a CNC machine. New knobs are being machined now and will be ready next week. I have just re  ordered the Theatre lights, + alot more items will be coming very soon. So the answer to your question would be yes. Instructions, Glass, mirrors, everything. Thanks

Curtis:
I thought I would post a picture of the Stoner Theatre you helped me restore.  It is my nicest piece.  Thanks for all your help.

Also, I wanted to thank Allen from  Antique Vending.  He has also been awesome in being there for all my projects.  Good luck to both of you.
